Derby County have parted company with manager Phillip Cocu with the club bottom of the Championship.

The Rams have won just one of their 11 league matches this season, the last of which was a home defeat by Barnsley.

Captain Wayne Rooney and coaches Shay Given, Liam Rosenior and Justin Walker will oversee first-team training before a permanent successor is appointed.

Former Barcelona and Netherlands midfielder Cocu, 50, won 21 of his 65 games after taking charge in July 2019.

His assistants Chris van der Weerden and Twan Scheepers have also left Pride Park by mutual agreement.

"I'm sorry Phillip and his staff have left the club and want to thank him personally for all his help and encouragement as part of his coaching staff," Rooney said.

"The most important thing now is to stabilise the club and start moving up the table.

"I've been asked to be part of the coaching staff to help the team's preparations for next Saturday's vital match against Bristol City.

"The coaches and I will speak with the players on Monday."
