Louis van Gaal has been dismissed from his position as manager of Manchester United.
LVG gone. Hoek, Stuivenberg and Reckers also out
Van Gaal, who led his side to victory in the FA Cup final just two days ago, has lost his job after an otherwise disappointing campaign, which was characterised by a lacklustre, conservative playing style.
United were eliminated from the Champions League group stages in December and then failed to qualify for next season’s edition of the tournament, finishing fifth in the Premier League.
However, Van Gaal, who replaced David Moyes in 2014, was always unlikely to see out the final year of his three-year contract at Old Trafford, even if a top-four finish had been salvaged.
Jose Mourinho, the former Chelsea manager, is expected to replace Van Gaal on a three-year contract.
