Ryan Lowe has left Preston North End by mutual consent just one match into the new Championship season.
A Preston statement said: “Following discussions that took place on Sunday August 11, it was mutually agreed that now was an appropriate time for a change to be made.”
Lowe departs after Preston were beaten 2-0 at home on Friday night by Sheffield United.
Mike Marsh, accompanied by Peter Murphy and Ched Evans, will take charge of Preston’s upcoming fixtures against Sunderland and Swansea this week.
Lowe was appointed in December 2021 and led the club to 13th, 12th and 10th-placed finishes during his two and a half seasons.
Preston ended last season with a five-game losing streak during which they failed to score.
