Paul Lambert has left his role as manager at Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The announcement came on the club’s official website on Tuesday morning and it is said the club and the manager parted company after a “football review” took place at the end of the 2016/17 campaign.
First team coaches Stuart Taylor and Rob Edwards, and head of sport science Tony Daley will also leave the Black Country club.
The news was released on Wolves’ official Twitter page.

Lambert only took the reins at Molineux in November of last year, meaning he leaves the club just six months after joining it.
The 47-year-old led Wanderers to a 15th-place finish in the Championship, although he did oversee an impressive FA Cup run which saw them reach the fifth round before being knocked out by eventual finalists Chelsea.
This comes after BBC journalist Pat Murphy claimed on his personal Twitter account that the club would axe Lambert on Tuesday and install Nuno Espirito Santo as their next boss.

Lambert has previously managed Blackburn Rovers, Aston Villa, Norwich City and several other lower-tier clubs.
He has never been able to replicate the success he had as a player during his time as a manager, his only real honours coming in his time at Norwich, as he led them to back-to-back promotions in the 2009/10 and 2010/11 seasons.
Lambert was a Champions League winner with Borussia Dortmund, and a four-time Scottish Premiership winner with Celtic during his playing days.
