Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has revealed Manchester United plans for Erik ten hag. The Red Devils ended their Premier League campaign with eighth-place finish which means the club will be without European football next season. He said â believe me when I say Erik ten Hag will be sacked, sir Jim is ruthless and we know who is going to succeed ten hag. This season has been disastrous and he ractiffe wonât tolerate thisâ. Erik ten Hag WILL be sacked by Man United regardless of whether his side âwin or loseâ Saturdayâs FA Cup Final, says Rio Ferdinand, as pundit lambasts squadâs lack of identity. Nobody was expecting this superb coach to takeover from ten hag if this is true then we are back on track. The fans are happy with this


Manchester United concluded their Premier League season with a 2-0 victory over Brighton, yet this win was insufficient to elevate them from their lowest-ever Premier League finish. Finishing eighth means Manchester United will miss European football next season unless they triumph over Manchester City at Wembley.
Erik ten Hagâs position has been under scrutiny after a turbulent 2023-24 season. His injury-plagued squad exited the Champions League in the group stage and endured several significant defeats. Former United player Rio Ferdinand has expressed doubts about Ten Hagâs continuation into a third season, regardless of an FA Cup win.
Speaking on his podcast FIVE, Ferdinand conveyed his belief that Ten Hag might not be retained next season. âIâm not saying thatâs what I want, Iâm just saying what I believe is going to happen,â Ferdinand remarked, suggesting the club might look for new leadership.
Ferdinand pointed to the teamâs dismal performances as a major issue, even considering the injuries. âMost teams have had injuries, maybe not to the same extent as Man United,â he noted, stressing that the teamâs playing style lacks identity. âI donât know what we are. I donât know who we are. Who are we as a team? What are we?â
Ten Hag has defended his tenure, arguing that disrupting the progress made would be unreasonable. After a recent loss to Arsenal, he expressed faith in his leadership, highlighting the teamâs overall spirit and adherence to game principles, despite the necessity to adapt due to injuries.
Following a win against Newcastle in their second-to-last Premier League match, Ten Hag motivated his players, pledging to do âeverythingâ to secure the FA Cup and bring the trophy to Old Trafford. Nonetheless, his future is still uncertain. Unitedâs part-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his INEOS team are reportedly exploring other options.
Reports have emerged about Unitedâs management reaching out to Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna, who recently led his team to Premier League promotion. Additionally, notable managers like Gareth Southgate and Thomas Tuchel have been mentioned as potential successors to Ten Hag.
