Keith Burt, Paul Groves make Bristol City exits

Championship side Bristol City announce the departures of director of football Keith Burt and academy manager Paul Groves.

Championship side Bristol City have announced that director of football Keith Burt and academy manager Paul Groves have left the club.

Burt, who previously spent seven years as Nottingham Forest's head of recruitment, arrived at Ashton Gate in 2013 during Sean O'Driscoll's tenure as head coach.

Ex-Bournemouth boss Groves, meanwhile, joined City as academy manager last July.

In a statement, the club said: "Bristol City would like to place on record its thanks to Keith and Paul for their contributions to the club during their respective tenures."

City, who recently appointed Lee Johnson as their new manager, are 19th in the Championship, six points above the bottom three.
