MANCHESTER United has confirmed the sacking of manager David Moyes, with club legend Ryan Giggs to take over until the end of the season.
The club confirmed Moyes's exit and the appointment of veteran Giggs on Tuesday.
"Manchester United has announced that David Moyes has left the club," it read.
"The club would like to place on record its thanks for the hard work, honesty and integrity he brought to the role."
"Following the departure of David Moyes as manager, Manchester United has announced that Ryan Giggs, the club's most decorated player, will assume responsibility for the first team until a permanent appointment can be made."
Red Devils chief executive Ed Woodward gave the Scot his marching orders in a meeting at the club's training ground on Tuesday morning (UK time).
News of Moyes's exit comes a day after widespread reports in the British media that he was facing the sack, just 10 months after succeeding Alex Ferguson as manager of the world-famous club.

The 50-year-old Scot endured a torrid debut campaign at Old Trafford, with United falling to seventh place in the Premier League and being eliminated from both domestic cup competitions and the Champions League.
Moyes's last game in charge was a 2-0 loss at his former club Everton, which confirmed that United would not compete in the Champions League next season for the first time since 1995.
The defeat, United's 11th of the league campaign, left the defending champions 13 points below the Champions League places and 23 points behind leaders Liverpool.

"There is no disguising that the football this season has been poor, the results have been poor," said former United defender Gary Neville, whose younger brother Phil was an assistant manager to Moyes.
"The performances have got worse and worse."

Louis van Gaal, the current Netherlands coach, has been installed as the favourite to succeed Moyes on a permanent basis by British bookmakers, with Jurgen Klopp of Borussia Dortmund another rumoured contender.
Giggs has long been regarded as a future United manager, having established himself in the pantheon of United greats by winning 13 Premier Leagues, four FA Cups, three League Cups, two Champions Leagues, one UEFA Super Cup, an Intercontinental Cup and a Club World Cup as a player.
He is still in the squad, but has had a bit-part role on the pitch, as he turns his focus on life after his playing career and earning his coaching licences.
United denied reports last month that Van Gaal met with a member of the Glazer family, but he will be free in the summer and has the experience of coaching at big clubs that Moyes lacked, having been in charge of Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Ajax in a 23-year managerial career.
