Erik ten Hag will take his Manchester United side to Tottenham in Thursday’s Premier League action – his first trip to the stadium since the North London club turned him down at a job interview.
The Dutchman was in the running to be the permanent Spurs boss in the summer of 2021 but lost out in the running, with the club eventually appointing Nuno Espirito Santo. The Portuguese boss was far from successful in the role, winning just eight of his 17 games at the helm.
Nuno was sacked from his post in November 2021 and replaced by Antonio Conte, who himself was dismissed from his post last month. Conte’s assistant Cristian Stellini took the position but after the weekend's 6-1 humiliation at Newcastle, he was dismissed – with Ryan Mason stepping into the role.
