A manager has reportedly accepted an offer from Manchester United to replace Erik ten Hag, in what is being described as a “betrayal.” The situation has been labeled “crazy,” with further details about the potential deal now emerging.
According to reports, Inter Milan manager Simone Inzaghi has accepted an offer to take over as the new head coach of Manchester United. The Red Devils ended a five-match winless streak on Saturday, defeating Brentford 2-1 in the Premier League. This victory marked just their third win in eight league matches, leaving Erik ten Hag's team struggling in 12th place. Heading into the international break, Ten Hag faced questions about his job security following a 0-0 draw with Aston Villa. While it was reported that he wouldn’t be dismissed during the break, some claimed a loss to Brentford could have jeopardized his position. Despite winning a League Cup and an FA Cup in his first two seasons at Old Trafford, Ten Hag has faced difficulties in both Europe and the Premier League in recent times. Last season, Manchester United finished eighth, their lowest position in Premier League history, but he avoided being sacked over the summer, even as INEOS explored other managerial options. Although Ten Hag’s contract was extended by a year, a report from Italy suggests that his departure is imminent, with Inzaghi set to take over. Inter Live claims that Inzaghi is prepared to "betray" Inter Milan and has "accepted" the Manchester United offer after two interviews. He has reportedly given his approval to the club, and the "details of the operation" are expected to unfold in the coming weeks. The Italian coach has agreed to a three-year contract and will receive an "almost unlimited budget" to enhance the squad left by Ten Hag. However, it appears that Inzaghi will only officially replace the Dutchman at the end of the current season.

Addressing the pressure he faces, Ten Hag stated earlier this week, “In football, you have to focus on the present. The past is behind us, and you need to prove yourself daily and every season, so we have to push forward. We’re still at the start of the season, and our goal remains to win a trophy again.”
