Ten Hag has won the Dutch title in 2019 and 2021 with Ajax and also reached the semi-finals of the Champions League in 2019, losing to Tottenham in dramatic fashion. Ten Hag looks unlikely to experience the Champions League in his first season with United as they are currently six points behind fourth-placed Spurs with seven games of the season remaining. Ten Hag has been seen as one of the leading contenders to take over in the summer from Ralf Rangnick, who has been in charge on an interim basis after Ole Gunnar Solkskjaer was sacked in November.

Manchester United's negotiations with Erik ten Hag are at "an advanced stage," sources have told ESPN, with the framework of a deal in place.

Ten Hag will stay in charge of Ajax until the end of the season, when they conclude their campaign with a trip to Vitesse on May 15, but is likely to have an influence on transfer dealings before then. Sources added that Ten Hag is satisfied with the plans for his role in the club's future, and is ready to sign a three-year contract with the option of an extra year.

Ten Hag is fond of fast starts with a 'shock and awe' approach – he won't 'rock the boat' immediately at Man Utd, but change is inevitable during the ...

Would Man United fans rather have a coach who is good in press conferences or someone who plays amazing football, wins things and gets the best out of his players? A source close to him says he doesn’t want to “rock the boat” when he first goes in, but assessments will be made. “The beginning is always difficult. “That run is stressing out opponents,” he says. He was a great coach and a great person.” The big screen flickers on to show a superb, slick move against Willem II that culminates in a brilliant finish by Klaas-Jan Huntelaar. At Ajax, his greatest team specialised in sharp, one-touch football utilising “maximum width” – luring defenders into positions before utilising the space left behind. The club are prepared to back him if he feels changes are required. A football obsessive, he has been carrying out extensive due diligence on the Manchester United project. But a few weeks later, everyone knew and the impact on the team was so positive so no-one needed to stop. From that point we all believed in the project.” Those sessions could extend for hours, leaving players feeling “mentally drained” at the level of micromanagement.

Manchester United are expected to announce Erik ten Hag soon – and there could be a big change of style under the Dutchman.

Mark White has been a staff writer on FourFourTwo since joining in January 2020, writing pieces for both online and the magazine. He hasn't played as a lone false nine often for RB Leipzig but his goal record speaks for itself: and his goal-creating action stats are among the highest of any forward in Europe's five leagues. Scott McTominay and Fred can be used as No.8s depending on the scenario, since both are box-to-box presences who can help out the DM. Donny van de Beek could be the attack-minded No.8 following his time under Ten Hag at Ajax: and Ten Hag may well turn this 4-3-3 into a 4-2-3-1 with Bruno Fernandes leading the charge at No.10. In this example, Ten Hag could sign Ronald Araujo, who the club are rumoured to be chasing. Naturally, the rumours on who could arrive range wildly – and Ten Hag could go for very different profiles. Manchester United fans may well give you a whole list of players that Erik Ten Hag may need to replace.

Maybe he will get to spend a lot of money, but I hope he will get the commitment of the club like that so he can decide which players to go for.” But he is also very good in the way he talks to the players. He will find a weakness and then he is able to tell the players what we must do to hurt them. And, an interview with BT Sport back in May 2019, Blind spoke of how he encourages his side to play. Having been signed by Ten Hag from Southampton in the summer of 2018, it is no surprise that Tadic remains a huge fan of his work — scoring 90 goals for the club in his four seasons in Amsterdam: “He is amazing. “He’s responsible a lot for me coming to Ajax because of course I know him,” Haller told CNN in 2022. You need a manager like that if you want to be one of the best clubs. The former Watford midfielder recently made a controversial move from rivals Feyenoord to join Ajax and the 30-year-old feels he has upped his game working under Ten Hag since his summer switch. And a pattern that appears to follow Ten Hag’s work, whichever club he works at, is the glowing reviews his players have left after playing under his management. He identifies their strengths and how to stop them, whatever the opposition do, he has a response. Everyone receives an explanation about what is being asked and what this manager would like to see in each position.” It remains to be seen how he will approach a United dressing room amid reports of a backlash from inside Old Trafford.
