Cardiff City Sacks Manager Erol Bulut

Cardiff City has sacked manager Erol Bulut following a poor start to the Sky Bet Championship season, with the team remaining at the bottom of the league after losing five of their first six matches and scoring just one goal. The decision came after a disappointing 2-0 defeat to Leeds United, which left Cardiff with only one point and a goal difference of -12. Bulut, who had been appointed in June 2023, acknowledged the club's history of frequent managerial changes under owner Vincent Tan, suggesting he was prepared for the possibility of his dismissal. Leeds United's victory marked their third win of the season, lifting them to sixth place in the standings. Cardiff's interim management will now fall to Omer Riza, as the club looks to turn around its fortunes amid growing pressure. This situation reflects a broader concern for Cardiff, who are facing the prospect of a relegation battle following their mid-table finish last season.
