Ruben Amorim walked away with a £10million pay-off on Monday when he was sacked as Manchester United's head coach after 14 months in charge at Old Trafford.
Amorim was summoned to the club's Carrington training base and dismissed by chief executive Omar Berrada and director of football Jason Wilcox after clashing with United's hierarchy over the last week.
Under-18s coach Darren Fletcher has been installed as caretaker manager for Wednesday night's trip to Burnley, with United set to name an interim boss until the end of the season.
