Hull City has removed former Derby County first team coach and temporary manager Liam Rosenior of his duties following the squad’s failure to qualify for the play-offs.
Liam Rosenior, the former coach of Derby County, has left Hull City after the Tigers’ Championship campaign finished without a play-off spot. As recently as the last day of the season, Rosenior led Hull to a seventh-place finish this season and maintained remote chances of breaking into the top six.
But with the club’s owners supporting them, a play-off finish was anticipated.
During a period when many of its lower league competitors had to operate with significantly fewer budgets, Hull signed players like Liam Delap, Fabio Carvalho, and Anass Zaroury on loan agreements in addition to providing cash for Jaden Philogene and Aaron Connolly to sign permanent contracts.
Hull, however, had a mixed winter despite having started and finished the campaign strongly. A loss on the last day of play at Plymouth Argyle guaranteed their spot in the Championship the following season. According to HullLive, on the last day of the season, owner Acun Ilicali spoke with Rosenior at Home Park. On Tuesday, he was notified that he would be leaving his position.
Rosenior came to Derby in 2019 after ending his playing career. After serving as Phillip Cocu’s first-team coach, he was named Wayne Rooney’s assistant manager in January 2021, following the former England striker’s appointment as manager. Rosenior initially replaced the departing Rooney after the Rams’ 2022 relegation, but Derby chose Paul Warne to be their League One leader.
Soon after, in November 2022, Hull determined that Rosenior was the best choice to succeed Shota Arveladze, who had been fired. Before Christmas of last year, he signed a new three-year contract to stay at the MKM Stadium. He was also nominated for the Championship’s manager of the year award, which Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna ultimately won.
