Southampton have sacked Will Still.

The club confirmed on Sunday evening that the Men’s First-Team Manager, along with Rubén Martinez, Clément Lemaitre and Carl Martin, has left the club, with U21 Head Coach Tonda Eckert taking charge on an interim basis.

Group Technical Director Johannes Spors said: “Will is a great person who gave everything to try and improve performances and results. Ultimately, that process has taken longer than any of us would have liked…”
