ERIK TEN HAG’S summer plans have been thrown into chaos after after a transfer budget freeze was imposed on Man Utd, leaving him “concerned”.
The potential sale of the Premier League club has led to a “worrying vacuum at a crucial stage” which is now threatening to scupper the manager’s recruitment.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe is currently in talks with the Glazer family alongside Sheikh Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani over purchasing United with a preferred bidder believed to be close to being announced after three rounds of bidding.
And the Daily Mirror claims that Ten Hag is “concerned that what should be a positive moment for the club could be derailed by the uncertainty caused by the club’s sale”.
The Dutchman has already secured his first piece of silverware at Old Trafford with the Carabao Cup in February.
United also look set to return to the Champions League and have an FA Cup Final against Man City at Wembley on June 3 to look forward to also.
