Sheffield United have confirmed the appointment of Ruben Selles as Chris Wilder's successor.
Selles has signed a three-year deal at the club.
Wilder left the club by mutual consent earlier on Wednesday, with his replacement announced less than an hour later.
Speaking in a statement, which confirmed his arrival, Selles said: “When we first heard about the possibility of coming here, it was a no-brainer for us to join a club with this kind of history and with a mission to move forward and try to be even more competitive.
“This is a very powerful and ambitious project. It was very important at the start of the conversations that everyone is on the same page."
Selles, who was sacked by Hull City despite keeping them in the Championship, had previously been the manager of Reading and was interim boss at Southampton.
The Spanish coach also beat Wilder's Blades 3-0 at Bramall Lane with Hull back in January.
