Erik ten Hag says he is looking forward to working with Manchester United’s new technical director Jason Wilcox despite mounting uncertainty over his future at Old Trafford.
Wilcox started work at the club’s Carrington training base on Monday after United agreed a compensation package with Southampton late last week, and the former Manchester City academy director will be a key figure in the new executive team being assembled by co-owners Ineos.
Incoming chief executive Omar Berrada and sporting director Dan Ashworth will join Wilcox at United, and the three men will influence the decision by Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his right-hand man Sir Dave Brailsford over whether to keep Ten Hag or sack the Dutchman this summer.
Brailsford has been assessing the situation since Ratcliffe’s £1.3billion investment was ratified at Christmas, and Wilcox will take on a similar role in monitoring Ten Hag’s situation and training
