Lambert era begins as Stoke coach Niedzwiecki departs

Stoke City coach Eddie Niedzwiecki has left the club.

The former goalkeeper took charge of the first-team in Monday's 3-0 loss to Manchester United.

Following the arrival of Paul Lambert as manager, the 58-year-old has decided to end his stint with the Potters.

A Stoke statement said: "Stoke City can confirm that Eddie Niedzwiecki has today left his role as first-team coach at the bet365 Stadium.

"The club would like to place on record their sincere thanks to Eddie for the professionalism he has shown, particularly last week when he took charge of first-team affairs while the managerial appointment process was ongoing.

"We would like to wish Eddie every success for the future."
