Manchester United have sacked Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in the wake of their embarrassing 4-1 defeat at Watford on Saturday.

The Norwegian, who will reportedly get a £7.5million pay-out if he is ousted, leaves the club in seventh and 12 points off Premier League leaders Chelsea.

Michael Carrick is set to take over for upcoming games as the Old Trafford club look for Solskjaer's successor.  

Zinedine Zidane is the favourite to take over if the club can convince him to join, while Brendan Rodgers is another of the names in the frame.
