Donny van de Beek has seemingly given his seal of approval on Erik ten Hag being appointed as the new Manchester United manager as he liked an Instagram post confirming the appointment.
Five months on from giving Ole Gunnar Solskjaer his marching orders in November, United have finally confirmed that Ajax boss Ten Hag will take over the reins from interim manager Ralf Rangnick at the end of the season. The 52-year-old has penned a three-year deal at Old Trafford, with the option of a further 12 months, and United have paid £1.7million to release him from his contract in Amsterdam.
The news of United hiring a manager renowned for his exciting style of football, success in the Champions League and promoting young players into the team will no doubt have gone down well within the squad — and it could be of particular benefit to Van de Beek. The midfielder enjoyed great success under Ten Hag's stewardship at Ajax as he was an integral part of the team that won his first Eredivisie title and reached the Champions League semi-finals in 2019.
