Man Utd Sacks Ten Hag; Van Nistelrooy Interim

Manchester United has sacked manager Erik ten Hag after a series of underwhelming performances, leaving the club 14th in the Premier League standings. Ten Hag, appointed in 2022, won the Carabao Cup and FA Cup but struggled for consistent league success, finishing 8th last season. The decision to part ways came after a 2-1 defeat to West Ham, with the board losing confidence in his ability to secure a top-four finish. High-profile signings under Ten Hag failed to deliver, adding to the scrutiny. Former United goalkeeper David de Gea stirred controversy with cryptic social media posts potentially celebrating Ten Hag's dismissal. Ruud van Nistelrooy has been named interim manager, and the search for a permanent replacement is underway, with candidates like Thomas Frank being considered.
