Gary Neville drops important update on Erik ten Hag future at Man United

October 7, 2024Ligue 1

Football pundit Gary Neville has claimed Manchester United do not want to sack manager Erik ten Hag.

The former Man United defender made that claim on Sky Sports while discussing the future of the Dutch manager after a poor start to the season.

The Red Devils have won just eight points in their first seven matches of the season, their worst start to a Premier League campaign.

Not only their Premier League form has been poor but also in the Europa League, they have failed to win the two matches they have played so far this season.

Ten Hag has been linked with an exit from the club after a disastrous start to the season but Neville believes that the club is not thinking about sacking the manager.

He told Sky Sports:

“They definitely won’t want to do anything this season. No club wants to sack a manager during the middle of the season.

“It’s not just a reflection on the manager, it’s a reflection upon them. Even though INEOS have come into the club in the last few months in terms of taking control of the football side – and Dan Ashworth and Omar Berrada have only been in for a couple of months – you can’t really land the blame at their door.
