Man Utd boss Ten Hag tipped for Ajax return

Dutch journalist Mike Verwijn is reporting Erik ten Hag's position is in doubt at Manchester United.

And he says a return to Ajax to replace Mark Steijn could happen.

"It is a club that does not hesitate to dismiss trainers, so the team has to perform quickly," says fellow reporter Valentijn Driessen said about Ten Hag's situation in Manchester.

"I think that Steijn hopes that Ten Hag can hold on for a while."

Verwijn said: "Well, I don't know.

"You hear people talking about that, like: would Ten Hag want to return? He has now tasted the Premier League and I think that after his successful period at Ajax there will be more interest in him.

"On the other hand: it is a wonderful moment to join Ajax now. It couldn't get much worse, so I think that if he is fired, he will become a candidate again in the long term."
