Frenkie de Jong and Christian Eriksen are guaranteed to succeed in a Manchester United shirt if Erik ten Hag gets those deals over the line. That is the positive message from former United star Wes Brown as moves to sign the two playmakers continue this summer transfer window.
After nurturing De Jong in his time as Ajax manager, Ten Hag identified the Netherlands international as a priority target following his Old Trafford appointment, as United and Barcelona hope to conclude a deal imminently. Eriksen is also on the radar after his short-term spell at Brentford came to an end.
Brentford have offered Eriksen a contract to extend his stay there, but United too have come calling and the Dane is set to make a decision on those options. De Jong and Eriksen are being pursued after Nemanja Matic, Paul Pogba, Juan Mata and Jesse Lingard all left United.
