Manchester United Hierarchy to Meet on Tuesday Over Erik Ten Hag Future at The Club

Manchester United’s decision-makers are reportedly set to meet 48 hours after Sunday’s Premier League match away at Aston Villa as the scrutiny continues to grow on manager Erik ten Hag.

Erik ten Hag's future at the club is under intense scrutiny following their poor form to the season, as the Red Devils have lost three of their first six Premier League matches, including back-to-back 3-0 defeats at the Old Trafford to Liverpool and Tottenham last weekend. United also failed to beat FC Twente in the Europa League, and their recent 3-3 draw to Porto extended their winless run to four matches.

The report claims that United’s executive committee will have a long-standing meeting in the diary for Tuesday, which will bring together part-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Sir Dave Brailsford, as well as recent appointees including chief executive Omar Berrada, sporting director Dan Ashworth, and technical director Jason Wilcox. United co-chairman Joel Glazer is also flying in from the United States to attend. There is scheduled to be a Manchester stop for meetings, too.
