Trollope, who was only appointed as Cardiff boss in May, leaves the club in 23rd spot in the table having won just two of his 11 league matches in charge. 

Warnock has been out of work since leaving Rotherham at the end of last season after guiding them to safety, finishing nine points clear of the Championship relegation zone. 

The 67-year-old has previously led Sheffield United and Queens Park Rangers to promotion to the Premier League.
