According to Torizone reports, Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag, has conceded that his team is likely to play in the Europa League next season following their 1-1 draw with Burnley on Saturday.
Ten Hag made the admission while speaking to BBC Match of the Day after the match, which saw Antony give United the lead in the 79th minute, only for Zeki Amdouni to equalize from the spot.
With the draw leaving Ten Hag's men in sixth place with 54 points and just four fixtures left, they find themselves 12 points behind Aston Villa, who currently occupy the last Champions League spot.
When asked about the likelihood of Europa League qualification, Ten Hag responded candidly, stating, "That is the facts. It is not easy to get fourth when you're so far behind.
"We needed to win. The past few weeks, we've got in winning positions and then given it away. The gap is too big in this phase of the season."
