Former Chelsea figure has been accused of leaking false information about Manchester United then-manager Eric Ten Hag.
The statement suddenly gained attention after Manchester United finally decided to fire their Manager Eric Ten Hag.
Manchester United and Manchester City competed against each other in the FA Cup final this year.
This is the first instance in history when the same teams have played in a final since the commencement of the FA Cup.
Last season, the Red Devils managed to defeat their arch-rivals Manchester City 2-1 in the finals at Wembley Stadium.
However, this season at the same venue, Manchester City, defeated the Red Devils and exacted their revenge.
The poor performance of Manchester United this season across all competitions has finally led the Red Devils to part ways with the Dutch manager.
Football365.com has reported that a senior Chelsea figure leaked Ten Hag sack report on the eve of the FA Cup final.
Chelsea’s Senior Man Statement’s Contrast On Eric Ten Hag
Manchester United has started poorly across all competitions and is currently sitting 14th on the Premier League Table.
Speculations were high that sooner or later he would be sacked by the Club.
However, it seems his two cup victories during his tenure were overshadowing his possible sack assumptions.
Media, Pundits and fans were seen giving their personal views on the manager’s failure to implement fruitful tactics.
The senior Chelsea figure’s name remains unknown but his prediction made in a view to disrupt Red Devil’s rhythm has backfired.
Before the FA Cup final, he stated that the management would surely dismiss Ten Hag in case they lose this fixture.
There were rumours that Ipswich Town’s manager Kieran McKenna will overtake the Red Devil’s managerial job.
Chelsea struggled with their performance and looked for a new manager with McKenna on their radar.
However, McKenna agreed to continue his tenure at Ipswich Town after receiving a substantial hike in his salary.
Talking about the sack statement, it has been linked with a motive to distort United’s preparation for the FA Cup final.
Why Did The Red Devils Sack Their Manager?
On Monday the Red Devils released a final statement announcing that the Manager Ten Hag has been sacked.
The announcement has come after a terrible start of the 13-time Premier League winners this season across all competitions.
At present, the club is sitting 14th in the table, the most down the club has hit since Sir Alex Ferguson’s tenure.
Compromising statements, Poor tactics, lack of earning players’ trust and constant criticism have led Eric to lose his job.
Manchester United have only won one game in their last eight competitions and are on a straight fourth loss.
The final verdict came after the Red Devils lost to West Ham United who themselves have been struggling this season.
Eric Ten Hag At United
In April 2022′ the club appointed Eric as the new manager as they did not give then-interim boss Ralph Ragnick a contract extension.
Eric arrived with high hopes at Old Trafford after his successful tenure at the Dutch club Ajax.
He had a successful first season at Old Trafford, and the team finished third in the League Table.
The Return of Champions League football for the club seemed to be igniting high hopes for the supporters.
Additionally, he led the team to win two Cups, The FA Cup and the Carabao Cup.
However, the following season the performance of the team declined.
The new owners believed in him and provided all kinds of financial support, but it all seemed to be in vain.
Finally, owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe went on to decide for sacking him.
Rudd Van Nistelrooy will be taking the charge of interim manager until a new manager is appointed.
