EPL: Money Man Utd will pay to sack Ten Hag revealed

Manchester United would need to pay manager Erik ten Hag over £15 million to sack him, the UK Mirror reports.

The Dutchman’s job is believed to be safe for now, although he is under pressure following their poor start to the season.

United’s 3-1 defeat to Manchester City in the Derby last Sunday was the fifth in 10 fixtures.

The Red Devils are clinging on to the chances of qualifying from their Champions League group after losing two of their first three games.

With the prospect of Sir Jim Ratcliffe taking over the club’s football operations, Ten Hag’s long-term future is already in severe doubt.

Ten Hag is under contract until the summer of 2025 and earns £9 million a year. United would need to pay up his guaranteed salary and that is before factoring in the costs of cutting ties with backroom staff.
