Erik ten Hag has been told how Jurrien Timber can help rejuvenate Harry Maguire at Manchester United.
As reported by the Manchester Evening News , Timber has been prioritised as United’s main defensive target this summer as Ten Hag builds his squad ahead of his first season in charge at Old Trafford. The 20-year-old would be a versatile defensive option, with the Ajax star capable of playing right-back as well as centre-back.
Ten Hag will, of course, know all about Timber from their time together in Amsterdam. The young Netherlands international made his breakthrough under the new United boss, and has impressed over the last couple of seasons in the Eredivisie.
