According to Laurie Whitwell, the Manchester United correspondent for The Athletic, Sir Jim Ratcliffe will be attending this weekend’s Premier League match between Manchester United and Aston Villa, after which he will decide on the future of head coach Erik ten Hag.
Manchester United’s performance this season has been far from ideal. After six rounds in the Premier League, they find themselves in 13th place in the league table, having suffered home defeats of 0-3 against Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur. As a result, head coach Erik ten Hag has once again faced criticism from fans and the media.
Now, according to the reporter from The Athletic, the current owner of Manchester United, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, plans to visit Villa Park this weekend to watch the away game against Aston Villa. Following the match, he will meet with several senior figures to discuss the future of Erik ten Hag.
Manchester United will face Aston Villa away on October 6th at 21:00. Considering that this is the last league match before the international break, it is a reasonable time to consider a change in management.
This will also be the second time this season that Sir Jim Ratcliffe attends a Manchester United match in person. During his previous visit, he witnessed a 0-3 defeat against Liverpool at Old Trafford. Meanwhile, Aston Villa currently sits fifth in the league and recently secured a 1-0 victory over German giants Bayern Munich at home.
