Manchester United are not planning to review Erik ten Hag’s future at the club and have total faith in the Dutchman to lead the team forward.
According to Football Insider, Erik ten Hag’s future at Manchester United has not come under scrutiny. Despite a disastrous start to their season, the Dutchman remains on favourable terms with the club board, who want him to lead the team into the future.
The report states there’s ‘no panic’ among those in charge of the club with regards to Erik ten Hag. The Dutchman’s future got called into question after Manchester United endured their worst start to a Premier League season in 34 years.
The club chiefs are keen to explore what the Dutchman has in store for the future and believe Manchester United’s future is in good hands. Ten Hag’s bad start to the campaign had ramped up the pressure so early in the campaign, but there is hope things will calm down with better results.
Hence, as per the report, Ten Hag has plenty of credit in the bank, and the club are not planning to sack him in the coming period. However, that does not absolve the Dutchman of the scrutiny, as the pressure would certainly increase with more bad results in the coming period.
Manchester United are currently sitting in the tenth spot after seven games in the Premier League as they endured consecutive home defeats. Last weekend, Crystal Palace managed to take three points at Old Trafford, and there are more tough games ahead for the Red Devils.
However, there’s plenty of blame on injuries to key stars, especially in his defensive ranks. Luke Shaw, Lisandro Martinez and Tyrell Malacia are all out of contention, while Mason Mount and Raphael Varane only made their returns recently.
Reports were suggesting Manchester United could offer a new contract to Ten Hag, which may have contradicted other stories suggesting his job had come under scrutiny. However, there’s hope from the board that results will soon improve and help the club climb up the table.
Hence, it’s safe to assume Ten Hag will remain safe in his role for now, but another set of bad results might bring back the conversation about a sack.
