Manchester United have confirmed that it cost the club £10.4 million to sack Erik ten Hag. The Dutchman was dismissed less than 24 hours after the team’s 2-1 defeat to West Ham on October 27. Ten Hag had only signed a new contract with United in July, which kept him tied to Old Trafford until 2026.
