Jaap Stam warns Erik ten Hag about taking Manchester United job

Former Manchester United defender Jaap Stam has warned Erik ten Hag that he would find things very different at Old Trafford to what he has accustomed himself to at Ajax in recent years.

The Dutchman, along with Paris Saint-Germain head coach Mauricio Pochettino, is one of the frontrunners to be installed as United's next permanent manager ahead of next season. Ten Hag has done a terrific job at Ajax in recent years and has put the club back on the map.

Leading them to two domestic league titles, Ten Hag has also turned the Dutch outfit into a formidable force in Europe, as highlighted by how comfortably they won their Champions League group earlier this season. Despite being pitted up against Besiktas, Borussia Dortmund and Sporting Lisbon, they won all six of their group games, scoring 20 goals in the process.
