The executive board of Manchester United wants to avoid the mistakes of the past and will be guided by the instructions of its new technical director, the Dutchman Erik ten Hag, both in matters of casualties and signings, as published Guardian.
The newspaper note states that the coach will bring with him his second coach at Ajax, Mitchell van der Gaag, to be his assistant. It will not be the only addition to the staff technical. He has also negotiated the incorporation of Steve McClaren, who was Sir Alex Ferguson’s assistant, however, his incorporation was finally rejected.
The new United driver wanted to add the experience of McClaren, a man who worked with Ferguson between 1999 and 2001 and with whom he won three leagues, but according to English media reports, this proposal has not been approved by the club.
To take over Ten Hag’s, the English team has had to pay two million euros that correspond to the termination clause of the contract with Ajax. A compensation for the Dutch club, which has not put major impediments to the departure of the one who until now was their coach.
His method has seduced the Old Trafford board, which has offered him an initial three-year contract with one more optional, until 2026.
He arrives in England to replace Ralf Rangnick after his good role with Ajax, with whom he has been proclaimed champion of the Eredivisie on the last two occasions.
Ten Hag prevailed over other candidates for the United bench, such as the Argentine Mauricio Pochettino, and will have a decisive role in the next transfer market. (D)
