Sir Alex Ferguson's four Man Utd targets explain what Erik ten Hag must prioritise

Sir Alex Ferguson’s main priority as Manchester United manager was finishing the season with as many trophies as possible, according to former assistant manager Rene Meulensteen.

Ferguson retired from management in 2013, having won 13 Premier League titles, two Champions Leagues, five FA Cups, four League Cups, and the Club World Cup with the Red Devils. However, United have only won the FA Cup, the League Cup and the Europa League in the nine years since he called time on management.

Ajax manager Erik Ten Hag is expected to be named as the next permanent manager when Ralf Rangnick’s interim spell comes to an end. And Meulensteen highlighted the winning mentality Ferguson imposed on the club during his legendary career at Old Trafford.
