Dutch manager Eric Ten Hag is set to sign a new contract as Manchester United manager after enduring speculation about his potential sack as the coach of the club.
Per transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, a new deal is almost now agreed between Manchester United and Ten Hag to continue his stay as the coach of the EPL club.
Romano also informed in a post on his X handle (formerly Twitter) that contacts over a new deal are now advancing to the final stages this week with his agents to finalize terms.

‘‘There will be changes in the staff with Ruud van Nistelrooy as a strong candidate, as revealed.’’ The respected journalist wrote on his official X account.
With this development, Ten Hag is expected to manage Manchester United at the start of the 2024–2025 season, according to reports.
Last season, the Red Devil’s failure to qualify for the UEFA Champions League put the bald Dutchman under intense fan pressure.
Ten Hag has now confirmed that he is in talks with the club’s hierarchy over a new contract as his agent is trying to find a common ground for the deal to eventually happen.
