Erik ten Hag is reluctant to accept Manchester United's job offer as he is worried about how much influence he will have in player recruitment.
The Dutchman is the frontrunner to be named Ralf Rangnick's successor after a series of meetings with club officials over the past few weeks. The Red Devils tabled an offer to Ten Hag but the Ajax boss is yet to accept the proposal.
Mirror Football exclusively revealed that RB Leipzig have entered the race to appoint Ten Hag as they look to hijack United's bid. The Bundesliga club opened talks with Ten Hag weeks ago and have now offered him a mega-contract, something which he is taking seriously.
