Sunderland urged to look at Portsmouth manager John Mousinho to replace Mick Beale

Sunderland have parted company with Michael Beale after just 12 games in charge.

 Sunderland disappoint fans by sacking Michael Beale, who won only 4 out of 12 games in charge.

Caretaker Mike Dodds will lead Sunderland until the end of the season as they search for a permanent manager.

Potential options like Portsmouth manager John Mousinho could be considered to replace Beale, per fan pundit Jack Austwicke.

Sunderland are on the hunt for a new manager after the sacking of Michael Beale.

The Black Cats controversially made the decision to replace Tony Mowbray with Beale in December, but it did not work out for the 43-year-old at the Stadium of Light.

Many Sunderland supporters were underwhelmed by Beale’s appointment, and he struggled to win over the doubters during his two-month spell at the helm.

Beale’s final game in charge was the 2-1 defeat at Birmingham City on Saturday, and he departs after winning just four of his 12 games in charge, drawing two and losing six.

Mike Dodds, who won two of his three games as caretaker manager prior to Beale’s arrival, will take charge until the end of the season to give the club time to consider the next appointment.

Sunderland currently sit 10th in the Championship table, four points from the play-off places, and they are back in action when they host Swansea City on Saturday.
