Leeds United have sacked director of football Victor Orta after their 4-1 defeat to Bournemouth on Sunday.
Orta - who joined the club from Middlesbrough in 2017 - has received heavy criticism from supporters in recent weeks after their dire run of form under Javi Gracia.
Leeds have picked up just one point from their past five games, conceding 18 goals in the process as they have been plunged deep into relegation trouble, with the club only outside the relegation zone on goal difference.
Manager Javi Gracia has also followed in departing with Orta, with Sam Allardyce agreeing to make a shock return to management in a dramatic shake-up of the club's football operations.
