Erik ten Hag using Tour de France secret weapon to continue Manchester United revolution

Erik ten Hag has been looking at success in other sports to try and coax the best out of Manchester United.

The Dutchman is always looking for small margins of improvement and it's been revealed he has sought help from the man who masterminded Jonas Vingegaard’s Tour de France triumph last year. The United manager is close friends with Merijn Zeeman, the director of the Dutch cycling team, Jumbo Visma.

Zeeman, who first acquainted himself with Ten Hag at Ajax, has revealed his role in trying to help the United squad. He advised Ten Hag that the group needed more one-to-one contact after bringing him with the team during their World Cup break in Spain.
