Man Utd trigger one-year extension to Ten Hag deal
Manchester United have triggered a one-year extension in Erik ten Hag’s contract to keep him at the club until 2026.
The Dutchman’s previous deal, which he signed when he was appointed in 2022, was due to expire in 2025.
Ten Hag, who joined United from Ajax, has won two trophies in two years at Old Trafford.
“I am very pleased to have reached an agreement with the club to continue working together,” said the 54-year-old.
“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.”
Ten Hag stressed, “We must also be clear that there is still lots of hard work ahead”.
United finished third in the Premier League during Ten Hag’s first season at the club as the Dutchman ended the club’s six-year wait for silverware with a victory against Newcastle in the Carabao Cup final.
But the Dutchman’s second season was far more difficult as United finished eighth in the Premier League and were knocked out of the Champions League group stages.
