Erik ten Hag will need to hit the ground running when he replaces Ralf Rangnick at Manchester United this summer.
The Ajax boss was appointed as United’s permanent First Team Manager last month and will be tasked with rebuilding a squad miles away from their Premier League rivals. In the past two months the Red Devils have suffered chastening defeats to Liverpool and Manchester City, fell out of contention for the top four and ensured they will record their lowest ever Premier League points tally.
That latest humiliation came following a sobering 4-0 defeat to Brighton and put into focus just how much Ten Hag will need to do in order to overhaul the playing squad at Old Trafford. Rangnick previously suggested they will need as many as 10 new players through the door in order to be competitive again.
