Armas was appointed to his role in July 2018 and led the Red Bulls to a Supporters’ Shield the same year. However, the club was eliminated in the second round of the playoffs and lost in the first stage a year later.
“On behalf of the organization, I’d like to thank Chris for his hard work and dedication to the club,” said Head of Sport Kevin Thelwell in a statement. “In this business, we have to make difficult decisions based on performances and, fundamentally, results. At this time, it’s my decision that we must go in a different direction in order to meet the ambitions we have for our football club.”
An interim head coach is expected to be named in the next few days; the Red Bulls’ next game is at home against Philadelphia Union on Sunday (7 p.m. ET; stream LIVE on ESPN+)
