"Manchester United's Technical Director Assesses Erik ten Hag's Future"
Jason Wilcox, Manchester United's new technical director, is poised to evaluate Erik ten Hag's managerial performance, scrutinizing both strengths and weaknesses.
Recent disappointing outcomes, notably the close call in the FA Cup semi-final against Coventry, have fueled speculation surrounding Ten Hag's tenure at Old Trafford.
According to reports from the Daily Telegraph, Wilcox will conduct a comprehensive assessment to gauge Ten Hag's suitability for the role moving forward.
The potential for a managerial change this summer is intertwined with Sir Jim Ratcliffe's investment in the club and his newfound sporting control.
Ratcliffe's presence at Wembley following the unexpected setback underscores the gravity of failing to secure European qualification, as reported by The Telegraph.
Wilcox's evaluation also encompasses Ten Hag's relationship with the team, which has faced scrutiny, particularly after an incident where Alejandro Garnacho 'liked' critical social media posts following last year's Jadon Sancho controversy.
As Manchester United's new sporting leadership aims to establish a cohesive style and philosophy, Ten Hag's alignment with this vision becomes pivotal. However, his prospects may hinge on the absence of an evident replacement.
Ten Hag's current contract, initiated upon his arrival from Ajax in the summer of 2022, has slightly over a year remaining.
Any departure before the contract's completion would likely necessitate compensation from Manchester United. Moreover, it is anticipated that Ten Hag's coaching team, including Steve McClaren and Mitchell van der Gaag, would also depart alongside him.
