Sancho could have caused major harm to Erik ten Hag and the Red Devils despite his joy. Germany’s prospects of securing a second Champions League spot the following season are enhanced by Dortmund’s advancement.
They are currently ten points behind fifth-place Spurs in the Premier League after a terrible start to the season. They would need to place fourth if they didn’t get an extra spot, which is quite doubtful at this point.
Ten Hag’s standing might be seriously called into question as a result. Sir Jim Ratcliffe, the club’s minority owner, has already emphasized how crucial it is that the team compete in the Champions League.
Speaking after sealing his purchase of the side, he said: “We really, really want to get into the Champions League next year – it’s quite important for FFP.
“Our focus is absolutely on the field, winning football matches, but the first thing is the organisation – the design of the organisation needs to be correct. If you take the example at the moment with the coach reporting to the chief executive, that doesn’t make any sense.”
