Erik ten Hag doubles down after making it clear he thinks Man Utd have made £50m mistake

Erik ten Hag has hinted that Tyrell Malacia could be deployed as a right-back at times for Manchester United this season - pouring further doubt on Aaron Wan-Bissaka's future.

Ten Hag moved swiftly to acquire the services of Malacia following his appointment this summer, with the former Feyenoord left-back becoming the Dutchman's first summer signing.
