Manchester United is on the verge of qualifying for the Europa League final after a commanding 3-0 victory against Athletic Bilbao. The second leg will take place at Old Trafford this Thursday. Should they face and defeat Tottenham Hotspur in the final, they will have 50 medals to distribute, potentially honouring former manager Erik ten Hag for his early contributions.
The potential medal for ten Hag underscores his role in United’s journey, having led the team to three group stage draws before being replaced by Rúben Amorim. This gesture highlights Manchester United’s appreciation for staff members who have contributed to their Europa campaign.
- Key Takeaway 1: United beat Athletic Bilbao 3-0 in the first leg.
- Key Takeaway 2: The final could see them face Tottenham Hotspur.
- Key Takeaway 3: Erik ten Hag may receive a medal for his contributions.
In my view, recognising ten Hag’s efforts reflects the club’s emphasis on team contributions, even beyond the current roster.
