Ten Hag writes off Man Utd as title contender

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has wrote off their title chances for next season.

Ten Hag says the team still needs to mature.

He said, "There are so many teams... Spurs, Newcastle, Chelsea, Aston Villa. These are teams that are all fighting for a place in the top four.

"We will also do that when everyone is ready, but right now we are not in a place where we can allow ourselves to fight for second place or the title.

"We can get closer if we make a good transfer window and keep the squad injury-free.

"We were last season, and then we got Rasmus Højlund in and Mason Mount (for this season)."
