Erik ten Hag could become Pep Guardiola’s neighbour after telling Manchester United that he wants to live in the city centre when he takes over at Old Trafford.
Ten Hag has opted to shun the enclave of millionaires who populate the Golden Triangle of Alderley Edge, Prestbury and Wilmslow because he doesn’t want to shut himself away from the fans who have become so disgruntled at the direction United are taking.
One of the places he is looking at is the plush 16-storey Deansgate CitySuites – home to Guardiola’s family, and other Manchester City stars like Ilkay Gundogan and Bernardo Silva. The building is situated on the Salford side of the River Irwell, which is traditionally United territory.
