Top European club ready for Manchester United to make an approach for their manager
Ajax CEO and former Manchester United goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar has suggested Ajax are ready for Manchester United to approach Ajax boss Erik ten Hag.
Ten Hag and Paris Saint-Germain boss Mauricio Pochettino are the leading candidates to take over as United’s new permanent manager at the end of the season.
Van der Sar told Dutch TV channel RTL7: “This means that we are doing something well. It’s the same with the players.
“When we perform, the interest comes. If there is interest in our players or coach…we’ve all been blown away in the past.
“So be it, we have to make sure we’re ready by then. That the lists are filled in.”
Ten Hag has suggested he’s ready for a new challenge, too, leaving the ball firmly in United’s court as the Red Devils ponder whether to make an official approach or not.
