Erik Ten Hag can still be Manchester United coach next season, but under certain conditions.
Erik ten Hag will have to accept a big pay cut at Manchester United next season if he wants to continue in his role.
According to ESPN, Ten Hag will have to accept a reduction in his emoluments of 25% next season in order to continue in his functions. He currently earns 10 million euros per year. If the reduction takes effect, he will only receive 7 million euros next season.
Ten Hag will have to make sacrifices
The reason is the missed qualification for the Champions League. Everything suggests that Manchester United will not be able to catch up with Aston Villa, who are in fourth place. There is a huge gap of 16 points between the two teams, even though United have two more matches to play. This will have repercussions on the finances and the Batavian technician should pay for it. If ever he is retained in his functions.
United and their new shareholders INEOS are still considering changing coaches in the off-season, but they are continuing to plan for next season with Ten Hag in case things don’t go as planned.
