Watford have sacked head coach Vladimir Ivic after four months in the role.
The Hornets, who have won nine of their 20 Championship games this season under Ivic, are fifth in the table, four points off second-placed Bournemouth and nine off leaders Norwich.
The 43-year-old signed a one-year deal in August, succeeding Nigel Pearson who was sacked shortly before the club were relegated from the Premier League.
It means Watford are looking for a fifth manager in just over a year.
Ivic followed Javi Gracia and Quique Sanchez Flores, who were both sacked in the early weeks of last season, leading to the arrival of Pearson last December.
