Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United backroom staff have been confirmed with Mitchell van der Gaag and Steve McClaren joining the Dutchman at United.
The 52-year-old, who has finished his role with Ajax after winning another Eredivisie title, will replace interim boss Ralf Rangnick and become the fifth long-term successor to Sir Alex Ferguson. United have been searching for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer ’s permanent replacement ever since his dismissal in November 2020.
And having given themselves time to complete all of their due diligence by appointing Rangnick for the remainder of the season, 52-year-old Ten Hag won over Old Trafford bosses with his ambitious plans for what promises to be an arduous rebuild.
