He is also set to hold talks over a contract extension, with his current deal expiring in 2025.

Ten Hag’s future had been the subject of continued speculation amid United’s underwhelming campaign.

However, the FA Cup final victory over Manchester City last month secured European football and earned Ten Hag a second trophy in England.

As a result, co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Ineos sporting director Sir Dave Brailsford have opted to move forward with Ten Hag.

Their decision comes despite reports potential replacements had been contacted.

Former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel was sounded out for the role, along with links to Roberto De Zerbi and Mauricio Pochettino.

Kieran McKenna was also tipped as a possible candidate before signing a new deal at Ipswich.

Ten Hag is now free to prepare for the upcoming campaign, though, without concerns regarding his future.
