According to rumours, Manchester United and manager Erik ten Hag, whose current contract has one year remaining, are close to reaching new terms. The Dutch manager is about to sign a new contract at Old Trafford, according to influential journalist Fabrizio Romano.
According to the transfer specialist, Erik ten Hag’s next Manchester United contract extension is very likely. Ten Hag and Manchester United are making great progress in their discussions, and they intend to finalise the deal as soon as possible.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe, a minority shareholder, met with former Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel last week, and Mauricio Pochettino was also reportedly in the running; however, neither appeared to be destined for the Old Trafford hotseat.
Man Utd set to agree terms with £173,000 a week man
Two years ago, the former Ajax coach joined the Red Devils on a three-year contract; he presently earns around £173,000 per week, or £9 million annually. Ten Hag helped Manchester United return to the UEFA Champions League, win the League Cup, and make it to the FA Cup final in his debut season with the team.
Man Utd finished bottom of their Champions’ League group, eighth in the Premier League, and will miss out on Europe’s major competition in the following season. Still, Man Utd’s administration has chosen to hang onto Ten Hag after a long period of time.
