Erik ten Hag reaches agreement to become next Man Utd manager

Manchester United have reached an agreement in principle with Erik ten Hag to become their new manager.

The Ajax boss is said to have shaken hands on a deal which lasts up to four years, with the Red Devils finally finding a permanent successor to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who was sacked in November. Ralf Rangnick has since presided over first-team affairs and will move into a two-year consultancy role at the end of the season.

Old Trafford chiefs made a breakthrough in negotiations with Ten Hag on Tuesday after multiple in-depth interviews, as the 52-year-old laid out his long-term plan for United, including having the final say on transfers and transforming their style of play.
