Kilmarnock deny reports that they have sacked manager Kenny Shiels.

Kilmarnock have denied speculation that they have sacked manager Kenny Shiels.

Media reports on Sunday claimed that the Scottish Premier League club had parted company with the 57-year-old.

"Today's reports are wrong," said a Killie spokesman. "We have not sacked Kenny.

"As was reported yesterday, Kenny's position is under review at present due to his failure to meet a contractual performance related target and potential breaches of contract relating to media comments and observance of Scottish FA Articles and Rules and SPL Articles and Rules. The outcome will be announced next week."

Shiels, who joined Kilmarnock in 2011, guided the team to a ninth-placed finish in the SPL table last season.
