Reports from England have it that the embattled Manchester United Manager Erik ten Hag will be sacked at the end of the season
Speaking on the latest edition of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, senior correspondent Pete O’Rourke revealed Ten Hag is likely to lose his job even if Man United beat Manchester City in the FA Cup later this month.
The Dutchman has overseen a disappointing campaign, with the Red Devils currently sitting eighth in the Premier League table heading into the final three games of the season.
Ten Hag saw his side beaten 4-0 by Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on 6 May, ramping up the speculation around his future at Old Trafford.
Football Insider revealed last month Man United chiefs are doing their due diligence behind the scenes over who could be their next manager.
It now looks increasingly likely the 54-year-old will be sacked following a run of poor performances in recent weeks.
There are expected to be plenty of changes at Old Trafford in the coming weeks as Sir Jim Ratcliffe looks to put his stamp on the club.
That leaves Ten Hag’s future in serious doubt, with Football Insider revealing last month outgoing Bayern Munich manager Thomas Tuchel is the top contender to replace him.
O’Rourke admitted behind-the-scenes issues haven’t helped the Dutchman’s cause, noting how the situation with Jadon Sancho hasn’t worked in the club’s favour following his impressive form on loan at Dortmund.
