Manchester United’s Chief Executive Officer, Omar Berrada, has expressed full support for struggling manager Erik ten Hag despite a poor start to the Premier League season.
EKO HOT BLOG reports that United finished eighth in the league last season, their worst since 1990, but Ten Hag led his men to an unexpected FA Cup final win against Manchester City.
The Dutchman was handed a one-year contract extension in July but only after club bosses considered alternatives.
Now Ten Hag is under pressure again following Sunday’s miserable 3-0 home defeat to Liverpool, United’s second loss from three games this season, which left them 14th on the table.
Speaking alongside new sporting director Dan Ashworth shortly before kick-off against Liverpool, Berrada said it would take more than a couple of bad results to shake the club’s belief in their manager.

“Do we still believe in Erik? Absolutely,” he said. “We think Erik is the right coach for us and we’re fully backing him.”
Ten Hag’s contract was extended before either Berrada or Ashworth had taken up their positions but both said they were happy with the decision.
