Inter Milan have sacked manager Frank de Boer after just 85 days in charge of the Italian club.
Former Netherlands defender and ex-Ajax boss De Boer, 46, was heavily linked with vacancies at Premier League clubs Everton and Southampton in the summer.
Youth team coach Stefano Vecchi will take charge of the first team for that fixture.
De Boer tweeted that "to carry out this project needed more time" and thanked Inter supporters for their support.
Before joining Inter, De Boer had taken Ajax to four successive Dutch titles but lost out to PSV Eindhoven on the final day of last season.
He signed a three-year contract with Inter in August, replacing former Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini.
It is six years since Inter won the treble of Serie A, Coppa Italia and Champions League under Jose Mourinho, now Manchester United boss, but since coming second in 2011 they have finished sixth, ninth, fifth, eighth and fourth.
They are now looking for a ninth manager since Mourinho left in the summer of 2010.
