Erik ten Hag spotted back in Manchester weeks after Man Utd sacking as he and wife Bianca head out for dinner
ERIK TEN HAG is back in Manchester more than three weeks after being sacked by Manchester United.
The Dutchman, 54, was dismissed by Red Devils chiefs at the end of October following their worst ever start to a Premier League campaign.

It brought to an end his mixed two-year spell at Old Trafford – which included Carabao Cup and FA Cup wins but also a disappointing eighth place finish in the Premier League last season.
He jetted back to Holland immediately after losing his job as he was replaced by Ruben Amorim.
Ten Hag was seen in his home country watching a game between Heracles Almelo and NAC Breda.
But now, with Amorim set to take charge of his first game as Man Utd boss at Ipswich on Sunday, Ten Hag is back in the city.
The ex-Ajax head coach was spotted leaving Piccolino – a chain restaurant in Manchester – on Monday.
He came out the front door alongside wife Bianca and smiled for the cameras as he walked away.
Meanwhile, Ten Hag’s successor Amorim took charge of his first training session earlier on Monday.
He spent time with a handful of first-team players, with the rest away on international duty.

Takeaways from the session included Amorim already shaping up in a 3-4-3 formation, Antony being utilised at wing-back, and Kobbie Mainoo being at the heart of everything.
Ten Hag left Man Utd with the team languishing in the bottom half of the Premier League table.
Ruud van Nistelrooy was unbeaten in his four matches as interim boss prior to the international break.
But a win over Ipswich would still be just their third Premier League victory in eight matches.
