OFFICIAL: Erik ten Hag extends Man Utd contract

After several weeks in which there were doubts about the future of Erik ten Hag at Manchester United, it was finally reported that the Red Devils management wanted to continue with the Dutchman at the wheel of the project, but it has not been until Thursday morning that the club has issued an official statement on their social networks.
"Erik ten Hag has extended his contract as Manchester United men’s first-team manager until June 2026" reads the statement published by the Mancunian side.
Ten Hag's future at Old Trafford was jeopardised when he led Manchester United to the worst Premier League campaign in their history, finishing eighth with 60 points. In addition, the Red Devils suffered a group stage exit on their return to the Champions League.
However, the former Ajax boss was able to make up the campaign by claiming a shock victory over Manchester City in the FA Cup final, which meant qualification for next season's Europa League and the second trophy in his second season in England.
"I am very pleased to have reached agreement with the club to continue working together. 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," he said after renewing his contract.
"However, we must also be clear that there is still lots of hard work ahead to reach the levels expected of Manchester United, which means challenging for English and European titles. In my discussions with the club, we have found complete unity in our vision for reaching those goals, and we are all strongly committed to making that journey together.
