Ten Hag’s future uncertain despite FA Cup success
Ten Hag’s future at Manchester United has been a source of debate following Manchester United’s failings in the Premier League and Champions League but his success in the FA Cup, beating fierce rivals Manchester City to win the domestic cup has left him with a lifeline.
Manchester United finished bottom of their Champions League group, which included Copenhagen, Galatasaray, and Bayern Munich, and also finished eighth in the Premier League, the lowest-ever position in Red Devils’ history.
Despite the struggles, Ten Hag was able to win a major trophy in consecutive seasons with Manchester United for the first time in the post-Ferguson era with his FA Cup triumph.
Ten Hag to find out fate this week
Thanks to his achievement in the Cups, Ten Hag could be spared the ax this summer, despite many calling for a change at Manchester United.
According to reports coming out of England, the Dutch manager will find out the club’s final decision on his future this week with higher-ups considering if he will be allowed to stay.
In the event of Ten Hag’s departure, Manchester United have reportedly shown interest in former Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino and current England boss Gareth Southgate as possible replacements.
