You don’t sack a man that has out classed Pep Guardiola in suit in front of 90,000 at Wembley. Nobody has ever done that”- BREAKING: The decision has been reached to retain Erik ten Hag as Manchester United’s manager According to Fabrizio Romano Ten Hag has been notified following INEOS’s final decision. Ten Hag will manage Manchester United in the upcoming campaign.

A recent report has revealed that Manchester United has come to a firm conclusion regarding the future of Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford.

The uncertainty surrounding Ten Hag’s position has been a topic of discussion since Sir Jim Ratcliffe acquired a 27.7% stake in Manchester United in early 2024. Throughout the season, the team’s erratic performance and unsatisfactory results cast doubts on Ten Hag’s capacity to guide United into a successful new era under the ownership of INEOS. Fans and analysts alike questioned whether Ten Hag could meet the high standards and ambitious goals set by the club.

Despite the growing skepticism, Ten Hag led the team to an FA Cup victory at the season’s end, providing a beacon of hope and indicating that future successes might still be attainable under his leadership.

According to a statement from the club, “Erik ten Hag will remain as Manchester United manager following the club’s end-of-season review, which concluded with the decision to retain the Dutchman. He has agreed to continue his tenure at Old Trafford.” The statement went on to explain that after a period of significant uncertainty about Ten Hag’s future, the club engaged in discussions with the 54-year-old manager on Tuesday, with both parties expressing a preference for him to remain in his role.

The FA Cup triumph has been seen by some as a sign that, given the right support and stability, Ten Hag has the potential to steer Manchester United towards achieving their objectives in this new phase under Ratcliffe’s partial ownership.

The Athletic has confirmed that the decision to keep Ten Hag at the helm has been finalized. Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sir Dave Brailsford spearheaded the decision to continue with Ten Hag for the time being. Discussions about extending his contract, which is set to expire in June 2025, are likely to occur soon.

“Erik ten Hag will stay as Manchester United manager after the club’s end-of-season review culminated in a decision to keep the Dutchman — and he has agreed to remain at Old Trafford,” the report reiterated. “United held talks with the 54-year-old on Tuesday, and both parties preferred for his tenure to continue.”

This decisive move reflects a vote of confidence in Ten Hag’s ability to lead Manchester United forward, potentially bringing about a new era of success and stability under the guidance of INEOS’s new partial ownership.
