Former Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag could soon make a managerial comeback, as reports suggest he’s being considered for the AS Roma job.
Just over two weeks after his dismissal from United, Ten Hag is rumored to be on Roma’s radar as they look to replace Daniele de Rossi, with *Corriere dello Sport* reporting that the Italian club has shown interest. Roma is reportedly evaluating several candidates, including former Torino boss Ivan Juric, as they aim to fill the vacancy at Stadio Olimpico.
Ten Hag’s time at United saw him win two trophies in two years, following his successful tenure at Ajax, where he clinched multiple Dutch league titles. However, he struggled to maintain consistency in the Premier League. Despite the challenges he faced at Old Trafford, it’s likely Ten Hag will receive other offers, as many feel he may find more success with a different structure and support system in place.
There were early indications that Ten Hag’s departure was anticipated, with INEOS reportedly eyeing a managerial change since taking over. INEOS has since appointed Ruben Amorim, the former Sporting CP coach, to lead United, with the main goal of restoring the club’s Premier League fortunes.
While Ten Hag’s tenure didn’t pan out as hoped, he remained committed until the end, unlike Jose Mourinho’s tumultuous departure. Although it wasn’t the right fit, Ten Hag’s effort shouldn’t go unnoticed. Now, United’s focus shifts to Amorim as he embarks on the challenge of leading the club back to glory.
