Erik ten Hag is edging closer and closer to becoming Manchester United's next permanent manager.
Ten Hag is now on the brink of accepting the role at Old Trafford and agreeing to oversee the next chapter in the club's history. As revealed by the Manchester Evening News last month, the Dutchman is United's preferred candidate for the job and he was interviewed just over three weeks ago.
Ajax bosses expect him to leave the Amsterdam club this summer to join United and reports in the last 24 hours suggest that a deal is now very close to being concluded. The Dutchman has been a popular choice among the supporters in recent months during the club's search for a new boss, so his impending appointment is set to be well received.
