Burnley will 'seek a short-term replacement for Sean Dyche until the end of the season before deciding on a permanent manager' with chairman Alan Pace 'wanting a new boss in place for Southampton's visit this Thursday'

Burnley are reportedly seeking an interim manager to replace Sean Dyche until the end of the season before deciding on a permanent appointment in the summer.

The Clarets parted company with Dyche, who was the longest-serving manager in the Premier League - following the disappointing 2-0 defeat to Norwich last week.

Dyche, who was Burnley's boss since 2012, departed with the club facing a battle to avoid relegation from the Premier League.
