Stoke City on Saturday evening confirmed the sacking of first team manager, Mark Hughes after a 2-1 shock loss to League two side, Coventry City.

Mark Hughes’ sacking was confirmed after the humiliating loss to the League two strugglers via the club’s official twitter handle.

We would like to thank Mark for all he has achieved for the Club over the last four and a half years, notably in guiding us to three successive ninth places finishes in the Premier League, and we wish him every success for the future.#SCFC 🔴⚪️

The Club will look to appoint a new manager as soon as possible and will be making no further comment at this time.#SCFC 🔴⚪️

A run of five defeats in seven Premier League games also contributed to Hughes’ departure as he leaves the club in the relegation zone after four and a half years in charge.
