Erik ten Hag is close to being fired. The media revealed the details

The coach of Manchester United,Erik ten Hag,has currently the support of club bosses, but the Dutchman's long-term future at Old Trafford is in jeopardy.

The issue of dismissing the specialist will be considered if the team’s results do not improve dramatically before the arrival of Jim Ratcliffe, who should become its next owner, joins the club, writes the Daily Mail.

Now the coach is under scrutiny, and the situation has especially worsened after the Red Devils' departure from the European tournament this week.

At the same time, the source writes that the current management has no desire to fire Ten Hag at the moment.

On Sunday, the 53-year-old will take his team to Anfield, where he lost 7-0 to local Liverpool in March.

The source insists that any decision on ten Hag's future will be delayed until owner INEOS acquires a quarter of the club for £1.25 billion.
