Manchester United’s season under Erik ten Hag has gotten off to a disappointing start, with the team securing only three wins from their first 11 matches across all competitions, one of which came against League One side Barnsley in the Carabao Cup. As a result, Ten Hag’s job is under intense scrutiny, even though he was given a two-year contract extension earlier this year.
Reports indicate that a crucial meeting is soon scheduled between INEOS and the Manchester United hierarchy to discuss the future of the Dutch manager. Despite the mounting pressure, Ten Hag remains confident that he can navigate through the current challenges and keep his position, at least through the month, according to The Telegraph.
The meeting, which will include key figures like Sir Jim Ratcliffe, isn’t solely focused on Ten Hag’s future but is part of a broader plan for executives to meet regularly to discuss the club’s overall progress. The last such meeting reportedly took place in Barcelona last month during the opening stage of the America’s Cup.
With the international break giving United some time before their next match, much could change depending on whether the club decides to part ways with Ten Hag.
