Since taking over in 2017, Myo Min Tun led Yangon to three titles - the Myanmar National League, Charity Cup and the General Aung San Shield in 2018.
“Yangon United head coach Myo Min Tun has formally resigned from his duty today on May 13th, 2019,” the club said in a statement.
“On behalf of everyone at Yangon United, we would like to wish you all the success in the future and we very much appreciate the effort that you have put in at Yangon and will remember the excellent work you have done with us in the last couple of seasons.”
Last year, Yangon reached the AFC ASEAN Zonal semi-finals before losing 6-5 to Ceres Negros FC. However, the 35-year-old has been unable to guide the Lions into the knockout stage of the 2019 AFC Cup, having only collected a win from their five group fixtures.
U Tin Maung Tun had previously served as interim head coach for the Lions during the 2016-2017 season and will be aiming to avoid finishing bottom of the Group F standings.
On the domestic front, Yangon are third in the Myanmar National League standings, a point behind Shan United and Hantharwady United FC.
