Willie Kirk has been sacked by Leicester City Women after an internal disciplinary process found the manager 'breached the team's code of conduct'. Kirk was suspended earlier this month, with the Foxes announcing they were conducting an internal investigation. That process has now concluded, with Leicester confirming Kirk will depart after nearly two years at the club.
'Established and implemented ahead of the start of the current season, the code forms part of the club's ongoing commitment to professionalising the women's game since the takeover of LCFC Women in 2020, promoting a performance-led culture among players, coaches and technical staff. 'First-team responsibilities for LCFC Women will continue to be led by Jennifer Foster, supported by Stephen Kirby, while the club begins the process of appointing a new permanent manager.
