Manchester United have Sacked manager Erik ten Hag. The Dutchman had spent two and a half years in charge of the club, and won the EFL Cup and the FA Cup during his tenure. However, ultimately the Red Devils' league form had been poor for way too long. Last year saw the club slump to their worst ever Premier League finish of eighth place, and things have failed to improve this term, with Man United currently 14th in the table. It seems the club's 2-1 defeat by West Ham at the London Stadium on Sunday afternoon was the last straw, with ten Hag informed of his dismissal less than 24 hours later. 

Former striker Ruud van Nistelrooy, who joined the club as Ten Hag's assistant last summer, has been named as interim manager. But before ten Hag, there are other coaches who have managed Man United since Alex Ferguson 26 years with English giants came to an end on May 9 2013.

DAVID MOYES

David Moyes took over from Sir Alex Ferguson and won United their 20th Community Shield and his first trophy as United manager; however, after failing to lead the club to Champions League qualification, he was sacked before the end of his first season, with Ryan Giggs taking temporary charge for the final four games of the 2013–14 season where the club finished seventh, their lowest league finish since the establishment of the Premier League

LOUIS VAN GAAL

After the dismissal of David Moyes  Netherlands manager Louis van Gaal was appointed as Moyes' permanent replacement on 19 May 2014, taking charge after the end of the 2014 FIFA World Cup. In his inaugural season, United signed many prominent players and returned to the Champions League with a 4th-place finish. In his second season, United finished in 5th place behind Manchester City, out of the Champions League positions, but won the 2015–16 FA Cup, the club's first in a dozen years. The board, however, decided that not enough progress had been made from the previous season and Van Gaal was sacked on 23 May 2016, just two days after lifting the cup.

MOURINHO 

Mourinho became United's fourth manager (including Giggs) in as many years since Ferguson's retirement. He won the Community Shield, League Cup and Europa League in his first season – the Europa League being the first in the club's history, making United the fifth team to win all of the main European club competitions. However, Mourinho failed to win any silverware in 2017–18 as United finished second in both the league and FA Cup. He was sacked on 18 December 2018 after the team won just seven of their opening 17 matches of the 2018–19 season.

Former club forward Ole Gunnar Solskjær was appointed as caretaker  manager for the rest of the season after Mourinho was sacked. On 19 January 2019, Solskjær won his seventh out of seven games in charge of United, a new club record, and on 28 March 2019, following victory over Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League, Solskjær was given the job permanently. He became the first former United player to manage the club permanently since Wilf McGuinness. On 21 November 2021, Solskjær left his post as the first full-time manager since Frank O'Farrell, and like McGuinness, to not win a trophy for United. He was replaced by first-team coach Michael Carrick on a caretaking basis until 2 December 2021.German Ralf Rangnick was appointed interi

TEN HAG

On 21 April 2022, Erik ten Hag was announced as the new full-time manager. On 26 February 2023, he successfully brought United their first competitive trophy in nearly six years as they won the EFL Cup final against Newcastle United.

The following season, Ten Hag took United to the FA Cup final, where they defeated cross-city rivals Manchester City 2–1 to make it successive seasons of silverware. In October 2024, Ten Hag was sacked after the club managed just three wins in their first nine league matches, leaving them in 14th place in the Premier League.
