Insider Fabrizio Romano has given the reasons why the management of Manchester United decided to continue working with the Dutch mentor of the team Erik ten Hag on his page on social networks.
Initially, the 54-year-old specialist was supposed to leave his post at the end of May after the FA Cup final. Later, The Athletic journalist David Ornstein reported on social media that the club's senior management analyzed the work of ten Hag and decided to keep him as head coach of MU.
According to the source, a key factor in the decision to extend the Dutchman's contract was his contribution to the development of the team's young players Alejandro Garnacho, Kobbie Mainoo and others.
Ten Hag has been in charge of Manchester City since the summer of 2022. At the end of last season his team took eighth place in the English Premier League standings, gaining 60 points in 38 meetings.
