David Moyes has been sacked by Manchester United with
immediate effect.
Chief executive Ed Woodward arrived at Carrington at
8am on Tuesday morning to inform the Scot face-to-face of the
news.
Moyes had already been informed of his fate and
thanked club staff at the training complex in anticipation of his
departure. The players were not present at the
time.
A tweet on the club's official Twitter account read:
'BREAKING: Manchester United announces that David Moyes has left
the club. The club would like to place on record its thanks for the
hard work, honesty and integrity he brought to the
role.'
It emerged on Monday that United's owners, the Glazer
family, had lost patience with Moyes after a dismal season that has
seen the reigning Barclays Premier League champions slump to
seventh in the table.
The final straw was Sunday's 2-0 defeat at Everton,
their 11th in the Barclays Premier League this season, and a result
that left the title holders 13 points off the Champions League
places.
Ryan Giggs to take charge until end of
season
