According to recent reports, Manchester United is looking to extend the contract of their manager, Erik ten Hag, for a lucrative sum of £12 million per year.
The Dutchman has apparently impressed the club’s hierarchy with his managerial skills, having led the team to success in his first season at Old Trafford.
The Sun on Sunday has reported that Ten Hag has convinced the United board that he is the right man to take the club forward. He is expected to be offered a contract extension that will run until 2028. Despite the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the club’s ownership, Ten Hag’s future at the helm of the Red Devils is said to be secure, with all interested parties believed to be backing him.
Under Ten Hag’s leadership, Manchester United recently ended their six-year trophy drought by lifting the Carabao Cup after beating Newcastle in the final. The club is also still in the running for the Europa League title, and fans are hopeful that they will achieve more success under their manager’s guidance.
Given the impressive results and performances achieved under Ten Hag’s leadership, it’s no surprise that the club is looking to secure his services for the long term. With a renewed sense of optimism around the club, Manchester United fans can look forward to a brighter future under Ten Hag’s guidance.
