Man United announced the appointment of Erik ten Hag on Thursday morning, a manager once linked with a move to Tottenham. The current Ajax boss will make the move to Manchester ahead of the 2022/23 season, in replacement of Ralf Rangnick.
The Red Devils are currently sixth in the Premier League and have faced a lot of criticism over their recent performances, which have shown a lack of fight and energy. Tottenham are currently in the fourth spot, which United are also battling for but Spurs are now level on points with Arsenal after the Gunners' win over Chelsea on Wednesday.
With United having just five games left to play and Spurs having six, the end of the season is just around the corner. With the final day approaching, it also means the opening of the summer transfer window is also looming and Ten Hag's appointment could now hand Fabio Paratici some transfer boosts.
