Barnsley announced they had ‘separated’ with manager Daniel Stendel with ‘immediate effect’ in a club statement with The Tykes sitting second-bottom of the Championship.

Stendel led Barnsley into the Championship as League One runners-up last campaign but leaves the South Yorkshire club having won just one of their 11 league matches so far this season.
