Manchester United have sacked manager Jose Mourinho after identifying a catalogue of his failings at the club.

The 55-year-old Portuguese, took over in May 2016 and led United to League Cup and Europa League titles, but they are 19 points behind league leaders Liverpool.

The Club have made a change after no progress with results or style despite spending nearly 400 million Pounds on 11 players.

The Club also says the new manager will understand the philosophy of the club, including their attacking traditions.

According to BBC Reports, it is understood players and staff are not happy after a disappointing and unsettling period during which young players were not developed.

United in a statement have said that a caretaker manager will be appointed until the end of the season while the club conducts a thorough recruitment process for a new, full‑time manager.
