Incoming Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has reportedly identified Barcelona midfielder Frenkie De Jong as one of his top targets to lead the revolution at Old Trafford.
Earlier this week, the 52-year-old was confirmed as the club’s next permanent manager and will begin his reign at the end of the season. But with his appointment now announced, thoughts are already turning to how Ten Hag will go about arresting the slide which has set in at the Red Devils.
The Dutchman joins United with the club at their lowest ebb in a generation, amidst a five-year trophy drought and trailing their biggest rivals by a country mile. Ten Hag is set to conduct a major overhaul in the summer, putting his own stamp on the playing staff.
