Manchester United has sacked manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The decision was made after Manchester United lost 4-1 at Watford.

The 48-year-old replaced Jose Mourinho in December 2018 before being given the job full-time four months later.

Solskjaer is a former Manchester United player. He scored 126 goals in 11 seasons from 1996-2007 including the winning goal in the 1999 Champions League final.

However, the club has won just one of their past seven Premier League matches and is now seventh in the table.

Man United’s recent poor results include a 5-0 thrashing by arch-rivals Liverpool and a 2-0 defeat by Manchester City.

Solskjaer is the sixth Premier League manager to lose their job this season after Xisco Munoz at Watford, Steve Bruce at Newcastle, Nuno Espirito Santo at Tottenham, Daniel Farke at Norwich, and Dean Smith at Aston Villa.
