Erik ten Hag's Man Utd wages set to break record as new Old Trafford boss announced

New Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag is on track to become the highest-paid Dutch coach in Premier League history.

The 52-year-old has officially been confirmed as the Red Devils' next boss, taking charge at the end of this season and replacing interim manager Ralf Rangnick. Ten Hag, who will leave Ajax behind after five glittering years with the Amsterdam giants, is set to pocket eye-watering wages over his three-year contract until June 2025.

Recent claims from the Netherlands suggest that the highly thought-of coach will earn more than what well-established compatriot Louis van Gaal took home when he was appointed United manager in 2014. It means that Ten Hag's wages - which are currently unconfirmed - would exceed £3.3million, as reported by De Telegraaf.
