Edwin van der Sar has sent Erik ten Hag off to Manchester United with his best wishes after the Ajax manager secured the Eredivisie title on Wednesday night.
Ajax sealed the title with a game to spare by thrashing by hammering Heerenveen 5-0 at the Johan Cruyff Arena. First-half goals from Nicolas Tagliafico, Steven Berghuis and Sebastien Haller had the hosts 3-0 up at the break and Brian Brobbey and Edson Alvarez wrapped up the emphatic win with further goals in the second half.
Ten Hag will leave Ajax following their final game of the season against Vitesse on Sunday having secured a third Eredivisie title in four completed seasons with the club. Victory over Heerenveen was followed by celebrations on the pitch, with Ajax lifting the trophy and conducting interviews for the crowd to hear.
