Erik ten Hag declined to answer questions about Manchester United ahead of Ajax's KNVB Cup final, despite the expectation that the English club are days away from confirming him as their next permanent manager.
United continue to be led by interim manager Ralf Rangnick. who himself would not be drawn on his successor ahead of the Red Devils' league meeting with Norwich City. Ten Hag has an agreement in principle to take over at Old Trafford, but no announcement is expected until after his current club take on PSV Eindhoven in Sunday's final.
Ajax have taken steps to ban the English media from their manager's press conferences as an appointment draws closer. That hasn't stopped questions about United arising, though, as Ten Hag found out as he spoke to media before the cup final.
