Given the constant rumors that have been circulating around Erik ten Hag’s time spent at Old Trafford, Manchester United may soon be required to make a decision regarding their managerial situation.
A total of eleven games remain in the season, and injuries have only served to make United’s problems even more severe. They are now eight points away from a position in the top four of the league.
Ten Hag’s job is reportedly being scrutinized more closely as a consequence of the club’s decision to adopt a new football hierarchy, according to reports.
Ineos Group, which is owned by Sir Jim Ratcliffe, has reportedly begun conducting interviews with potential managers in preparation for an anticipated administrative revamp that will take place in the coming months, as reported by the Manchester Evening News.
According to reports, Julian Nagelsmann, who once served as the coach of Bayern Munich, is a candidate for the job of eventual replacement.
Nagelsmann is now making preparations to hold the position of captain for Germany at the European Championship in 2024.
After the conclusion of the European Championship, Nagelsmann is planning to return to the management of the club, as stated in a story that was published by Sky Sport Germany.
In addition, he intends to convey to the general public, prior to the beginning of the competition, what his subsequent plan of action planned to be.
Considering the current conditions, Nagelsmann would be able to focus solely on the German national team, so avoiding distractions from other concerns.
It is possible that the likelihood of Nagelsmann being employed will have an impact on the preseason schedule of Manchester United and any other team that is interested in acquiring his services.
However, despite this, United will continue to take Ten Hag’s future into consideration in the event that they decide to replace him at the conclusion of the current season.
As a result of Manchester United’s inconsistency in performance ever since the INEOS company assumed possession of the team, there has been discussion over the prospect of a management change at the club.
The future of Ten Hag, on the other hand, can be determined by the general financial situation of the squad.
As a result of the possibility that Ten Hag’s contract may be terminated for a sum of up to ten million pounds, United may decide to keep him on the bench while they iron out their issues with Financial Fair Play (FFP).
A recent announcement made by United indicated that their payroll bill for the second quarter climbed by 23%.
One of the factors that contributed to this increase was the fact that they were the first side to be eliminated from the Champions League in the 2023β24 season.
