Erik ten Hag has reassured Manchester United fans that he wants to play entertaining football.

Ten Hag has joined United on a three-year contract with the option of an additional year. Ten Hag will speak at his first United first conference later today and he'll answer questions from the media just one day after United lost against Crystal Palace.

United confirmed the appointments of Mitchell van der Gaag and Steve McClaren for Ten Hag's backroom staff on Monday morning. Van der Gaag and McClaren, who were in attendance with Ten Hag at United's final game of the season at Crystal Palace, have been appointed as his assistant coaches. Both coaches have previously enjoyed successful spells with Ten Hag.
