Rex Features
Mercuriadis started working with the former Smiths frontman five years ago, but has split from the musician by mutual consent.
Speaking about the decision, Mercuriadis said: "Over the last five years, Morrissey and I have had three albums which entered the charts at five, two and one, and had ten top 20 singles and sold hundreds of gigs all over the world from Earl's Court to the Hollywood Bowl.
"I believe my penance is complete and Saint Morrissey has granted my absolution."
Morrissey will now be managed by ie: music, whose clients include Robbie Williams and Sia.
