Erik ten Hag’s future: Will the Dutchman be fired after his match vs Man United?
Though the Dutchman received a one-year contract extension in the summer, his place in the dugout has never been considered certain.
In the first Premier League match of the new season, a tumultuous 1-0 victory over Fulham did not provide Ten Hag with the momentum he needed to save his future.
The Red Devils have only triumphed over Southampton and Barnsley in the nine games across all competitions that have come after.
Before the October international break, Ten Hag needed to avoid losses at Porto and Aston Villa, which they did by drawing 0-0 and 3-3, respectively.
Ten Hag, however, was left to consider his future after a discussion involving important players behind the scenes on Tuesday, even though he remained obstinate throughout.The executive committee met regularly, with Sir Jim Ratcliffe presiding over the deliberations, thus the meeting was nothing unusual.
It was held at INOES’s London offices, with sporting director Dan Ashworth and chief executive Omar Berrada in attendance, according to The Guardian.
But no significant choices are reported to have been made, which became clear in the hours that followed with no change about Ten Hag’s destiny.
However, after taking a vacation during the first leg of the international break, Ten Hag is reportedly still in danger of losing his spot in the dugout in the days to come.According to the article, in the event that Ten Hag is fired, assistant Ruud van Nistelrooy is most likely to step in as interim leader.
He is presently getting ready for United’s Premier League match against Brentford at home on October 19. United has to win by two goals to move up to 11th place in the league.
United has had the worst start to a Premier League season ever after seven games, managing just eight points.
