Erik ten Hag had “confrontational conversations” with Manchester United’s executive last month over the direction of the team, with the Dutchman stating “we should part ways” if an agreement could not be reached.
Ten Hag met club officials in Ibiza for talks to decide his future as manager after the Sir Jim Ratcliffe-led football department had considered numerous other candidates as potential replacements. The 54-year-old was ultimately retained and signed an extension to his existing contract until June 2026.
