In a move that's got Red Devils fans buzzing, Manchester United announced on Thursday that manager Erik ten Hag will stay at Old Trafford until 2026! 🎉
Ten Hag's original contract was set to expire in 2025, but instead of signing a new deal, United activated a one-year extension, keeping the Dutch tactician at the helm for an extra season. And guess what? He still holds onto his all-important transfer veto power—talk about trust! 💪
\"I am very pleased to have reached an agreement with the club to continue working together,\" Ten Hag shared. \"Looking back at the past two years, we can reflect with pride on two trophies and many examples of progression from where we were when I joined.\"
Since taking charge in 2022, Ten Hag has made quite the impact. Under his guidance, United clinched 68 wins from 114 games and bagged two trophies! 🏆🏆 In the 2022-23 season, they soared to third place in the Premier League and nabbed the EFL Cup title. And last season? They might have finished eighth, but they crowned it by defeating Manchester City to lift the FA Cup! ⚽️🔥
With Ten Hag steering the ship, the future looks bright for United. Fans are eagerly awaiting the magic he'll bring in the upcoming seasons. Let's go, United! 🎯🔴
