It’s been a massive week for the Manchester United executive committee, with two meetings in two days. The first took place at Old Trafford and then at Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s Knightsbridge offices in London.
Whilst the meeting was a regular appointment for the board to discuss the operations of the club, a lot of ears were listening out for conversations about Erik ten Hag’s future.
The club are currently sat in 14th in the Premier League and 21st in the Europa League, the worst start to a campaign ever.
As a result, Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s feelings are very much that “enough is enough” and change needs to happen.
However, we are yet to hear any word from the meetings regarding ten Hag’s future, suggesting he may be safe for the moment.
Despite this, reports are now coming out about a potential candidate to replace ten Hag who sits at the top of Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s shortlist of successors.
Meanwhile, it’s been reported that Sir Jim Ratcliffe still has his eyes firmly on Thomas Tuchel as an attractive option to take over at Old Trafford.
The pair met in Monaco for a meeting about the United managerial job when ten Hag’s future was uncertain at the start of the summer.
