Where does Ten Hag's future stand after the Aston Villa draw?

Manchester United board remain steadfast with Ten Hag

Despite the current difficult situation, the Manchester United board have no intention of sacking Ten Hag, according to ESPN. The club decided to extend the Dutchman's contract after the FA Cup success in May. ESPN reporter Rob Dawson said the board still have faith in Ten Hag, despite a difficult start to the season.

Confusion from the leadership

Despite their desire to keep Ten Hag, the Manchester United board admit that they are feeling confused by the poor results. Especially after activating Ten Hag's contract extension clause earlier in the summer, they are having to make important decisions about his future. A crucial meeting is scheduled for October 8 to discuss the direction of the club.

Potential replacement names

In this context, Ruud van Nistelrooy is considered the leading candidate to replace Ten Hag, with the possibility of taking over in 2026. In addition, Simone Inzaghi and Thomas Tuchel are also mentioned as possible options for the hot seat at Old Trafford. The current leadership team is under a lot of pressure to find a solution to the current situation.

Statement from co-owner Ratcliffe

When asked about Ten Hag's future, Manchester United co-owner Ratcliffe refused to give a specific answer, saying: "I like Erik Ten Hag and think he is a very good coach. But the final decision is not mine; it is the responsibility of the current board."

Mr Ratcliffe also stressed that the new leadership team had only been established in recent months and was still learning how Manchester United operated, particularly in the early months of the year.

Erik ten Hag's future at Manchester United remains uncertain as the team struggles with poor form. With pressure mounting from fans and club bosses, can Ten Hag turn things around and keep his job? A crucial meeting on October 8 will decide much about the future of the "Red Devils" this season.
