As discussions about Erik ten Hag’s future at Manchester United persist, the Dutch coach’s attitude towards Altay Bayındır has become a headline story in the English press. It has been emphasized that ten Hag’s treatment of Bayındır is negatively affecting many players in the squad.
Manchester United signed Altay Bayındır from Fenerbahçe for 5 million euros at the start of the previous season. Reports from the English press have revealed shocking news regarding Bayındır, who has struggled to find playing time behind Andre Onana. According to Football Insider, Erik ten Hag did not speak to the national goalkeeper for two weeks after his transfer. During this period, it was reported that Bayındır only spent time with goalkeeper coaches and had no discussions with the Dutch manager. This attitude from ten Hag has caused concern among several other players in the squad, leading to an uneasy atmosphere in the locker room.
Following claims that some star players at the club have lost faith in ten Hag, doubts have also arisen regarding his attitude toward the players. Having worn the Manchester United jersey for over a year, Altay Bayındır has only played one match each in the English League Cup and the FA Cup.
