“We are grateful to Erik for everything he has done during his time with us and wish him well for the future,” the club said in a written statement.

Ruud van Nistelrooy, a former Man U striker, will take over as interim head coach, supported by the existing coaching staff, as the Premier League giant searches for a permanent replacement.

Appointed in April 2022, ten Hag and led the club to two domestic trophies, clinching the Carabao Cup in 2023 and the FA Cup in 2024.
