Ten Hag wants future decided quickly as Man Utd begin review
Latest from Sky Sports News chief reporter Kaveh Solhekol:
Erik ten Hag wants his future cleared up as quickly as possible amid speculation Manchester United are considering sacking their manager.
Ten Hag accepts mistakes have been made but believes he has done a very good job in extremely difficult circumstances.
The Dutchman is going on holiday with the feeling he is the best man for the job, having guided United to a stunning FA Cup win over Manchester City on Saturday.
Ten Hag said after lifting the trophy at Wembley that “if they don’t want me anymore, I’ll go anywhere else to win trophies”.
United will start a review of their season next week and no decision over Ten Hag’s future will happen before it is complete.
Evans: I hope Ten Hag stays
Jonny Evans hopes Manchester United do not sack Erik ten Hag as the club consider the manager’s future following Saturday’s shock FA Cup final win against Manchester City.
A poor, injury-hit second season in the hotseat has heaped pressure on the Dutchman and a report on the eve of the game claimed the club had decided to fire him regardless of the result at Wembley.
But there was no sign of distraction under the arch as Ten Hag’s side shocked neighbours City, with Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo scoring in a 2-1 win that sealed FA Cup glory.
It is United’s second trophy in as many seasons under the former Ajax boss, yet his future remains in serious doubt as ambitious Ineos head into their first summer in control of football operations.
Mauricio Pochettino, Thomas Tuchel and Kieran McKenna are among those to be linked with a job that veteran defender Evans believes Ten Hag should remain in.
Asked how everyone would feel if the United manager left, the 36-year-old defender said: “I don’t know. You’ll have to ask everyone that.
“I think, on a personal level he’s been amazing for me. I can only thank him for that. I have a good relationship with him, so I hope he stays.
“Since I came back in the summer he’s had no problems putting me in and trusting in me.
“You want that from the manager, to show that trust and belief in you. He did that. Like I said, I’ve had 30 games now, so I’m buzzing.”
