Ten Hag's message to Mainoo at Wembley

Mainoo said in an interview that ten Hag told him, "Your day will come, We are going to win trophies together and your day is coming.”

They have the opportunity to make that happen today, with United one win away from capturing their 13th FA Cup title.

This may also be the pair's last chance to win a trophy together, with rumours swirling that the Red Devils are about to sack ten Hag after the FA Cup final, regardless of the result.

Winning the title won't be easy for Mainoo and co., as they will face the newly-crowned Premier League champions Manchester City.

They continued their dominance in the English top flight, beating West Ham on the final day to secure their fourth consecutive Premier League title.

City defeated United 2-1 in the 2023 FA Cup final, with Ilkay Gundogan scoring a double for the champions, per The Guardian.
