Erik ten Hag facing uncertain future at Manchester United

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag is under growing pressure following a poor start to the season, with Antonio Conte linked as a potential replacement.
Erik ten Hag’s tenure as Manchester United manager is increasingly under threat following a difficult start to the Premier League campaign. The club has managed only six points from their opening six matches, marking their worst beginning to a season in four decades.
Potential managerial change
According to media reports, the club is seriously evaluating the manager's position as performance levels remain under intense scrutiny. While speculation continues, Antonio Conte has been identified as a leading candidate to take over, with the Italian previously hinting at interest from the club.
