The current manager of Manchester United, Eric ten Hag, has won seven trophies so far in his coaching career. The Dutch coach helped United win the Carabao Cup in his first season with the club.
Apart from that, Ten Hag won 6 titles during his Ajax tenure. He helped the Amsterdam club win three Eredivisie championships (2021-22, 2020-21 and 2018-19). He also led them to two Dutch Cup wins.
Apart from that, Erik ten Hag won the Dutch Super Cup with Ajax. The 52-year-old is one of the more tactical coaches in the game at the moment.
It is highly regarded among fans and critics. Manchester United’s improvements were evident in Ten Hag’s first season. He helped the team to a third-place finish in the Premier League in 2022-23. The Red Devils will play in the Champions League next season, after an absence of a season.
Here is what Erik ten Hag had to say about David De Gea’s future with Manchester United
David de Gea’s contract situation is a hot topic at the moment. His contract with United expired on 30 June. The longtime goalkeeper was initially offered a contract renewal.
However, United have since withdrawn their bid. Eric ten Hag was asked about De Gea’s future at the club last month. Dutch told the Times:
“Yes, but I wouldn’t say it will always be number one for me because at a club like Manchester United there has to be competition for all positions. You can’t do that with 11 players. It’s impossible. You need double positions.”
Since joining the club in 2011, De Gea has been a hardworking servant of the outfit. He has so far made 545 appearances, keeping 190 clean sheets. De Gea won the Premier League Golden Glove in 2022-23.
However, the Spaniard has made some notable mistakes as well. He is not very adept with his distribution, which is a trait Tin Hag needs from his goalkeeper. Thus, the Red Devils are exploring other options to become the club’s first choice.
