Erik ten Hag will receive significant financial backing during the summer transfer window - regardless of whether Manchester United qualify for the Champions League.
The Dutchman is expected to leave his post as Ajax manager to take over at Old Trafford at the end of the season. Attention has quickly turned to what this could mean for United's transfer business as they look to rebuild following a torrid few months.
The Red Devils have slumped to seventh in the Premier League table and their hopes of leapfrogging Arsenal, Tottenham and West Ham to secure fourth place are hanging by a thread. While failure to reach the Champions League would deal a huge blow to their coffers, United chiefs are prepared to stomach this and open the chequebook for Ten Hag.
