Erik ten Hag is close to signing a new deal at Manchester United with an extension between the two sides now close to being agreed, according to reports.
The Dutchman was thought to be sacked at Old Trafford ahead of United’s FA Cup final triumph over derby rivals Man City, and a new contract has been a priority since his stay was confirmed.
Ten Hag won two trophies in his first two seasons at United amid uncertainty within the club, largely caused by the ownership buyout which ultimately ended with Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS acquiring ‘a participation in the club.
INEOS has secured sporting control of United and has held discussions with Ten Hag over extending his stay, with negotiations now at an advanced stage and expected to conclude this week, as Fabrizio Romano reports.
More soon.
