Erik ten Hag made one crucial mistake which may have led to his sacking at Manchester United, according to another former Dutch Premier League manager.

Such praise is a far cry from Erik ten Hag’s treatment of Amad. He struggled to gain the trust of his former head coach, despite impressive cameos, and even Omari Forson was preferred to United’s newest star in February against Fulham before joining Monza on a free transfer.

Manchester United have confirmed the full cost of replacing Erik ten Hag with new head coach Ruben Amorim. Ten Hag signed a new contract in the summer after surviving INEOS' full review of the club, only to be relieved of his duties in late October.
