After their 1-2 loss to West Ham United, Manchester United has parted ways with manager Erik ten Hag. This decision follows a disappointing defeat to a lower-ranked team in the Premier League 2024-25 season. Ten Hag served as manager for two years and two months, during which he led United to Carabao Cup and FA Cup victories. However, the recent loss proved critical to his position to be get dented. With Ten Hag’s departure, the focus now turns to identifying Manchester United’s new head coach.
Who is the new Manchester United coach?
Ruud van Nistelrooy will serve as the interim head coach of Manchester United while the club searches for a permanent manager.
