“Marc leaves having made a significant contribution to the continued progress of Manchester United Women.”
Skinner, who was appointed in 2021, guided United to their first major honour in women’s football by winning the FA Cup in 2024.
Last season, United finished fourth in the Women’s Super League, 15 points behind champions Manchester City.
The club will begin the new league campaign away to London City Lionesses on September 4 as preparations continue under a new coaching setup.
