Man Utd fell to a 2-1 defeat against West Ham yesterday after a controversial late Jarrod Bowen penalty.
It proved to be the final straw for the board, who sacked Ten Hag on Monday morning.
A short 87-word statement read on United official website: “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.”
