"Erik ten Hag has left his role as Manchester United men’s first-team manager.

We are grateful to Erik for everything he has done during his time with us and wish him well for the future."

Manchester United have had a disappointing season under the Dutch manager this season, as the defeat to West Ham United keeps United sitting 14th in the Premier League table after nine games. They have also failed to win any of their three Europa League games, drawing against Twente, Porto, and Fenerbahce.
Ruud van Nistelrooy will take charge of the team as interim head coach while United look to recruit a permanent successor to Ten Hag. The legendary United striker will lead the team for Wednesday's game at home to Leicester City in the Carabao Cup.
