Manchester United’s chief executive, Omar Berrada, has expressed full support for manager Erik ten Hag despite recent poor results.

The club extended Ten Hag’s contract after considering alternatives after a disappointing season. Nevertheless, questions have arisen about the team’s progress after defeats in the league.

Reports suggest that Thomas Tuchel is a potential target for United if Ten Hag is let go. Billionaire Jim Ratcliffe, involved in club operations, has shown interest in Tuchel, who is presently available.

Another contender is Gareth Southgate, with Ratcliffe reportedly a fan of the former England manager.

Berrada and new sporting director Dan Ashworth have reiterated their belief in Ten Hag. They stated that the manager has their full backing.

They are confident in Ten Hag’s abilities and are committed to supporting him in achieving success for Manchester United.

The club has been active in the transfer market. They have signed new players and allowed some departures. This includes Jadon Sancho and Scott McTominay.

The decisions were made based on player wishes and strategic considerations. The club aims to keep a competitive squad while adhering to financial regulations.
