Erik Ten Hag is expected to return to Ajax, according to Man Utd news, as Andre Onana mulls a U-turn
Erik ten Hag will play for Manchester United against Brentford in the Premier League on Saturday, and it suddenly seems like a must-win game for him after back-to-back losses.
If Erik ten Hag wanted Manchester United’s 2023–24 season to get off to a dream start, it has already turned into a nightmare.
The Red Devils and their supporters are still in shock following their embarrassing home loss to Galatasaray on Tuesday night, which came only three days after they were humiliated by Crystal Palace at the same location. Andre Onana, a new goalkeeper whose place in the team is under increasing pressure, made a number of mistakes leading up to the defeat as well.
On Saturday, the final game before the break, Brentford will be the next Premier League team to travel to Old Trafford. And after suffering four losses in their first seven league games, Ten Hag’s team dares not lose.
And as Day 318 of the drawn-out, and for supporters, vexing, takeover story approaches, we bring you the most recent news from Old Trafford.
Ten Hag anticipated for shocking Ajax comeback
In spite of Erik ten Hag’s struggles at Manchester United, former Ajax forward Kenneth Perez maintains that it’s “not a crazy idea” for him to join the team again.
What if Erik ten Hag lost his job? Would Ajax be stupid to beg him back? Perez stated on Voetbalpraat on ESPN (via Metro). The Danish international played for Ajax twice and won the Eredivisie while working with Steve McClaren, who was Ten Hag’s assistant.
“Manchester United is known for the fact that things can get difficult if things don’t go well,” the 49-year-old continued. So it’s not a weird idea after all, is it?
Andre Onana’s Manchester United nightmare is set to prompt another U-turn on his international career with Cameroon.
The goalkeeper made a shock return to play in the 3-0 win over Burundi on September 12, a result which secured the Indomitable Lions a place at the Nations Cup in the Ivory Coast in January. Were he selected for the tournament, he could miss as many as nine games for United.
