Crawley Town have parted company with manager John Yems in the wake of racism and discriminatory conduct allegations.
Yems had been suspended indefinitely last month following "serious and credible" accusations about his behaviour from playing staff.
The Football Association said on Wednesday it was investigating allegations of discriminatory words and conduct by the 62-year-old.
The League Two club said Yems will leave immediately by mutual consent.
Crawley were taken over by US cryptocurrency investors WAGMI United last month and new co-chairman Preston Johnson said the club would begin a "global search" for their new manager.
"We're looking forward to the next era of Crawley Town Football Club," he told the club website.
"We're eager to partner with our players and supporters as we build a team and community that Red Devils fans can continue to be proud of — both on and off the pitch."
Assistant manager Lewis Young will remain as interim manager for the final game of the season on Saturday.
