Erik ten Hag sacked by Manchester United after dismal run

Erik ten Hag has been sacked by Manchester United.

The club lost their fourth Premier League game of the season after yesterday's 2-1 defeat to West Ham.

United have only won once in their last eight matches across all competitions. 

The global giants sit 14th in the Premier League table.

A club statement read: “Erik ten Hag has left his role as Manchester United men’s first-team manager.

“Erik was appointed in April 2022 and led the club to two domestic trophies, winning the Carabao Cup in 2023 and the FA Cup in 2024.

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

“Ruud van Nistelrooy will take charge of the team as interim head coach, supported by the current coaching team, whilst a permanent head coach is recruited.”
