“Burnley Sack Manager Nicky Hayen After Just 14 Games in Charge” — what this page in the network covers. Burnley have parted ways with manager Nicky Hayen after only 14 games at the helm, the club confirmed on Tuesday. The decision comes amid a disappointing start to the season that has left the Clarets falling short of expectations and struggling to find consistency in the Championship.

Burnley's board moved swiftly to relieve Hayen of his duties, citing the need for a change in direction to salvage the season.
