Man Utd ‘step up plans to replace’ Ten Hag as prepare to ‘make approach’ for ‘top contender’

Man Utd have stepped up their efforts to replace Erik ten Hag by preparing to make an approach for Ipswich Town boss Kieran McKenna, according to reports.

The Red Devils had a promising first campaign under Ten Hag with the Dutchman leading them to Carabao Cup silverware, an FA Cup final appearance and a top-four finish in the Premier League.

However, things have not gone to plan this term with Man Utd finishing eighth in the Premier League and being dumped out of Europe before Christmas after finishing bottom of their Champions League group.
