Although this season has proven to be one to forget for Manchester United, the impending arrival of Erik ten Hag is set to lift the dark, grey clouds that have been hovering above Old Trafford.
The Dutchman, currently of Ajax, is edging closer and closer towards becoming United's new manager. He was interviewed for the role last month and has since been installed as the overwhelming favourite.
He is now understood to be on the brink of signing a contract at Old Trafford in preparation of picking up the baton from Ralf Rangnick, who will continue to hold the fort until the end of the season. Ten Hag's impending appointment, although it will not instantly remove the problems that United have faced throughout this season, is a sign that the club is moving in the right direction.
