Erik ten Hag, the current manager of Manchester United, has made a bold statement directed at the club's owners, suggesting that if they do not want him to continue as manager, he will seek success elsewhere. Despite uncertainties surrounding his future, Ten Hag celebrated his second trophy win in as many seasons at Old Trafford, following United's unexpected 2-1 triumph over Manchester City in the FA Cup final on Saturday.
Addressing his uncertain managerial status, Ten Hag admitted to being kept in the dark about his future at United but remained resolute in his ambition to win trophies, whether with the club or elsewhere. With two trophies and three final appearances in just two years, Ten Hag emphasized his track record of success and his determination to continue delivering silverware.
Although Ten Hag's tenure at United has faced scrutiny, with reports suggesting potential replacements being considered by the club's hierarchy, he maintained confidence in the support of Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Ineos, the club's co-owner and director of sport, Sir Dave Brailsford, respectively. Despite questions about his future and the club's managerial discussions, Ten Hag expressed satisfaction with the progress made under his leadership, emphasizing the team's development and success in securing trophies.
United captain Bruno Fernandes acknowledged the speculation surrounding Ten Hag's future but emphasized that such matters were beyond the players' control. Fernandes stressed the importance of focusing on on-field performances and delivering results, as demonstrated by their FA Cup victory, while recognizing that the club's disappointing Premier League campaign could not be overlooked despite their cup success.
