Bruno Ribeiro has resigned as Port Vale manager.
His resignation comes after the 1-0 Boxing Day loss at home to Walsall, which was Port Vale's third successive defeat.
"The chairman and I had a project, which sadly due to recent form left me feeling that I let the chairman, fans and club down," Ribeiro told Port Vale's official website.
"It is with a heavy heart that I tender my resignation with Port Vale Football Club. I would like to wish the club all the best for the future."
Vale are 17th in the League One table after one victory in their last 10 league games.
