“Eric was appointed in April 2022 and has led the club to two domestic trophies. The Carabao Cup in 2023 and the FA Cup in 2024.”

“We would like to thank Eric for all his hard work during his time with us and wish him the best for the future.”

“Rud van Nistelrooy will assume the role of caretaker head coach. Supported by the current coaching staff. While the club looks to appoint a permanent head coach.” a club statement said.

  Ten Hag escaped sacking last summer after leading Manchester United to an eighth-place Premier League finish. But has since secured an FA Cup triumph and retained his position as head coach.

However, in the 2024-25 season, Manchester United has only 11 points from the first 9 games, ranked 14th in the Premier League table. The latest game, which was a 1-2 away loss to West Ham, was their 4th loss in the league this season. Meanwhile, their performance in the Europa League was a draw in all three of their first games. Ranked 21st out of 36 teams in the league phase.
