Next job is set for Erik ten Hag as Man Utd considers sacking him for Gareth Southgate

There is an air of uncertainty surrounding Erik ten Hag‘s future as Manchester United contemplates sacking him in favor of Gareth Southgate. Despite a rocky season, the Dutch manager may find solace in the form of a Bundesliga job offer if his time at Old Trafford comes to an end.

Ten Hag finds himself in a precarious position as United‘s lackluster performance this season has left many questioning his tenure. With the Premier League title slipping away and a premature exit from the Champions League, the pressure is on for the former Ajax coach to deliver.

If Ten Hag fails to secure Champions League qualification or lift the FA Cup, his time at United may be cut short. Enter Sir Jim Ratcliffe, eagerly eyeing a return to Europe‘s top competition and potentially signaling the end of Ten Hag’s reign.

Speculation mounts as Gareth Southgate emerges as a front-runner to replace the embattled Ten Hag. The prospect of a change in leadership looms large, with Southgate‘s successes on the international stage making him an appealing option for the Red Devils.

Amidst the managerial shake-up, United remain hopeful of securing Dan Ashworth as their sporting director, a move that could bolster Southgate‘s potential arrival. Ashworth‘s close ties with Southgate from their time at the Football Association could pave the way for a seamless transition.

The Daily Star reports that should Ten Hag part ways with United prematurely, he will not be short of suitors. Bayern Munich, Bayer Leverkusen, and VFB Stuttgart are among the clubs expressing interest in the Dutch tactician, recognizing his talent and potential to rejuvenate their squads.

Bayern Munich‘s pursuit of Xabi Alonso to fill the void left by Thomas Tuchel‘s departure could open up opportunities for Ten Hag. As Alonso’s possible move to Liverpool looms, Ten Hag emerges as a prime candidate for top managerial roles across Europe, showcasing his versatility and appeal.

With uncertainty swirling around Ten Hag‘s future, one thing remains clear – his talent and experience have not gone unnoticed by top clubs seeking a fresh perspective. Whether he continues his journey with United or initiates on a new chapter in the Bundesliga, Erik ten Hag‘s impact on the footballing world is undeniable, leaving fans and pundits alike eager to see what the future holds for this dynamic coach.
