Erik ten Hag is close to being named as the next Manchester United manager with the club discussing his exit with Ajax, according to reports.
The current Ajax boss was among the favourites to take charge at Old Trafford this summer once Ralf Rangnick's interim spell comes to an end. Ten Hag has previously held discussions with the United hierarchy and is, again, in dialogue with them over potentially filling the role, according to Sky Sports.
The Premier League side are currently speaking with the Dutch side, according to the Daily Mail, as they seek to finalise what it would take to lure him away from the Johan Cruyff Arena. His compensation package sits at £1.6m, but that is likely to go beyond £2m once his staff are also factored in.
