Erik ten Hag ‘has next job lined up’ amid increasing pressure at Man Utd

Erik ten Hag could reportedly have his next job already lined up as pressure continues to mount on the Dutchman at Manchester United.

After United’s underwhelming start to the 23/24 season, Ten Hag is facing an uncertain future at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils are currently sitting in sixth place in the Premier League table and their Champions League campaign came to a premature end after a disastrous group stage.

After the recent investment from British billionaire and INEOS boss Sir Jim Ratcliffe, the uncertainties around Ten Hag’s future have been raised.

However, it has been claimed that Ten Hag could have his next job already lined up.

As reported by The Independent, Ten Hag’s former side, Ajax, would be willing to work with the Dutchman again.

The 54-year-old spent five seasons at the Amsterdam club before being lured away by United.

During his time with Ajax, Ten Hag won three Eredivisie titles and two KNVP Cups.

Speaking recently about his future, Ten Hag said: “I’m here, I’m under contract for three seasons, so I don’t care. I’m only focusing on the process so I don’t care what’s going around me.

“I have many talks with Jim Ratcliffe but especially also with Sir Dave Brailsford so I know what we are talking about. I have a strong belief and I feel that they believe in me.”

He continued: “I’m just focusing on the team and I have to find solutions for this team that they perform in the best way they can. It’s all about focusing on this and don’t get distracted by any noise.

“We’re talking about the future, we’re talking about a future together.”

United are back in Premier League action on Sunday afternoon when they take on local rivals and reigning champions Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.
