Joyce leaves Melbourne City

Melbourne City have parted ways with head coach Warren Joyce following their elimination from the A-League finals.

Joyce's departure was announced on Wednesday following the conclusion of his two-year contract with the Australian club.

Former Wigan Athletic manager and Manchester United reserve team boss Joyce oversaw Sunday's 1-0 extra-time loss to Adelaide United in the Elimination Final.

"It's been a challenging couple of seasons, but I have great pride in the players and staff for the progress the club has made," Joyce said.

"I've seen real growth from the playing group and within the football organisation and the continued development of the right kind of culture.
