Watford have announced the departure of manager Tom Cleverley, bringing an abrupt end to his tenure at the club.

This decision marks yet another managerial change for the Hornets, highlighting a period of significant instability in the dugout.
Cleverley, a former Watford player, took charge of the team on 2024.
His time in charge has been relatively short.
This sacking further emphasizes Watford’s remarkable turnover of managers in recent years.
Since September 2019, the club has now parted ways with a staggering 12 different managers, with Cleverley becoming the latest casualty.
The list paints a vivid picture of the managerial merry-go-round at Vicarage Road:
- 🇪🇸 Quique Sanchez Flores
- 🏴 Hayden Mullins
- 🏴 Nigel Pearson
- 🇷🇸 Vladimir Ivic
- 🇪🇸 Xisco Munoz
- 🇮🇹 Claudio Ranieri
- 🏴 Roy Hodgson
- 🏴 Rob Edwards
- 🇭🇷 Slaven Bilic
- 🏴 Chris Wilder
- 🇫🇷 Valerien Ismael
- 🏴 Tom Cleverley
The search for the 13th manager in less than six years will now commence, leaving many to question the long-term strategy and stability at the club.
Watford will be hoping that their next appointment can bring a period of sustained success and end this unprecedented era of managerial changes.
