Ten Hag’s winning of the Carabao Cup has effectively ended the club’s six-year drought.
Also present during the team’s dressing room celebrations was Avram Glazer.
It was relayed yesterday that Avram Glazer would attend United’s clash against the Magpies at Wembley.
During the time he was in the stands, United fans were relentless in their singing of anti-Glazer chants.
Avram Glazer was filmed heading into the dressing room to give the players credit for their displays against Newcastle.

Speaking after the game, Ten Hag was quizzed about Avram Glazer’s presence in the dressing room.
Ten Hag said, “He was really happy for the club, as our owner.”
“He wanted to be part of it. He was in the dressing room, good he was here, showed his intentions.”

Last week, Ten Hag and Fergie were seen in Wilmslow having dinner together. Speculation was rife that Ten Hag was getting valuable advice from the Scotsman about how to navigate games against Barcelona and Newcastle.
Whatever Fergie told him, Ten Hag must have surely listened.
