Manchester United is reportedly considering terminating the contract of manager Erik ten Hag if he fails to reverse the team’s recent poor form. According to former Arsenal player Paul Merson, there is speculation that Ten Hag might face dismissal if Manchester United loses their upcoming three fixtures.
The Red Devils are set to face Chelsea at Old Trafford in a crucial Premier League match following their recent 1-0 defeat to Newcastle. With the team currently trailing by 9 points in the league and positioned at the bottom of their Champions League group, there is heightened pressure for a turnaround in performance.
Merson commented on the situation, stating, “If they lose to Chelsea, Bournemouth, and Bayern, I don’t see how Ten Hag keeps his job. I do think they’ll beat Bournemouth, however, and they could do well against a Bayern Munich side that has already qualified for the Round of 16,” as reported by Sportskeeda.
