The Vancouver Whitecaps have fired head coach Carl Robinson, the club announced on Tuesday.
The club's academy technical director Craig Dalrymple will take charge as interim manager for the remainder of the season.
Robinson will depart the Canadian side after nearly five full seasons in charge, having taking over prior to the 2014 MLS season.
The move comes with just five games remaining in the regular season and Vancouver four points out of the final playoff spot in the Western Conference, sporting a record of 11-11-7.
“We have a lot of respect and appreciation for Carl and his team, and are thankful for the contributions they have made to this club," Whitecaps president Bob Lenarduzzi said in a club statement.
