The Future of Manchester United: A Review of the Season
As the FA Cup final came to a close, Manchester United’s manager, Erik ten Hag, stood victorious but uncertain about his future at the club. The 2-1 win over Manchester City was a sweet victory, but the real question on everyone’s mind was: what’s next for Ten Hag?
“Two trophies in two years is not bad, three finals in two years is not bad,” Ten Hag said in a post-match interview. “If they don’t want me, then I go somewhere else to win trophies because that is what I do.”
The Dutch manager’s defiant tone was a testament to his confidence in his abilities, but it was clear that his future at the club was far from certain. As the team celebrates their FA Cup win, the real work begins - a thorough review of the season, including Ten Hag’s performance.

The review, set to take place next week, will assess all aspects of the season, including Ten Hag’s willingness to evolve and adapt to the team’s needs. It’s a crucial moment for the club, as they weigh their options and consider the best course of action.
The Europa League, which Manchester United will participate in next season, brings a significant windfall of around €40 million in prize money if they have a good run in the competition. This will be a welcome boost to the club’s finances, especially considering the estimated €70 million windfall that comes with playing in the Champions League.
