Manchester United are reportedly ‘very close’ to hiring Erik ten Hag as their new manager according to media reports in Europe.
The Ajax boss has been the favourite with the bookmakers to take the Old Trafford hot-seat for a number of months, despite the club also having other managers on their radar, and the move is edging closer as the Red Devils look to become a force in the game once again.
During the recent international break, United interviewed a number of high-profile managerial candidates but Sky Sport’s Angelo Mangiante has said Ten Hag is “very close” to being named as the next United boss - though he does want a final answer from the club as soon as possible.
