Manchester United have announced that their former midfielder Nicky Butt will take charge of the reserve team on an interim basis.
Butt, United's Head of Academy, takes over on a short-term basis after Warren Joyce was named as the new manager of Championship side Wigan Athletic earlier this week.
Butt has previously coached the United under-19 teams that competed in the UEFA Youth League in 2013 and 2015, and his first game in charge of the reserves will be a friendly against Brentford on Saturday.
