    Erik ten Hag’s time at Manchester United looks to be coming to an end.<\/p>\n

    A midweek 3-0 Carabao Cup defeat at the hands of Newcastle United heaped more misery upon the Dutchman, with the club having lost five of their last 10 games. Just days prior, Man United were on the end of another embarrassing defeat to fierce rivals Manchester City, who also dispatched ten Hag’s side 3-0 at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

    Things at United look bleak right now, with in-fight amongst the dressing room threatening to derail their season even more than it already has. The 2023\/24 campaign has seen the club hit with a string of controversy, ranging from the bizarre effort to bring Mason Greenwood back into the fold, which provoked huge backlash, to the public falling out between winger Jadon Sancho and ten Hag.<\/p>\n

    While INEOS billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe looks set to be close to securing a 25 per cent share in United, which will reportedly see him seek to inject an investment of \u00a3245million to help improve the infrastructure around the club, ten Hag’s tenure looks to be untenable right now. <\/p>\n

    Performances on the pitch have lacked imagination, with United having seemingly regressed despite enjoying a relatively positive campaign last season. And with that in mind, Daily Star Sport<\/b> took a look at the 12 individuals who could be primed to take over from ten Hag in the event he is sacked in the coming weeks… <\/p>\n

      Graham Potter<\/h3>\n

      Sacked by Chelsea earlier this year, Graham Potter is still without a job. The 48-year-old saw his stock rise exponentially at Brighton, only for it to come crashing down after his tenure at Stamford Bridge. He has been linked with the Swedish national team job recently, but could he be tempted into making a Premier League return if ten Hag is sacked? <\/p>\n
