Ajax are interested in bringing Erik ten Hag back to the club amidst uncertainty around his future at Manchester United.
According to a report by Graeme Bailey on TBR Football, Ajax are closely monitoring the situation of Erik ten Hag at Manchester United. The Dutch manager has been under immense pressure of late, and he could be shown the exit door after the end of the season.
Ten Hag took charge of the English club in the summer of 2022, after an impressive spell at Ajax. He had a great debut season at the club. But Manchester United failed to reach similar heights this time around.
They have been inconsistent throughout the season and are all set to miss out on a top-four finish. He could still guide them to the FA Cup title as Manchester United are all set to square up against local rivals Manchester City in the final. Despite that, he might not have a long-term future at the club.
While the club’s new part-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe is impressed by his ability to nurture young players, he has not been able to deliver the kind of results they want. They are considering sacking the former Ajax boss in the summer and have already started looking for potential replacements.
Ajax want to re-appoint Erik ten hag as manager
With his future at Manchester United uncertain, his former club, Ajax, are considering bringing him back to the club. The Dutch giants parted ways with Maurice Steijn earlier in the season. They went on to appoint John van’t Schip as the interim boss until the end of the season.
Ajax have been on the lookout for a new boss since parting ways with Steijn. While they have been in talks with multiple options, they are not rushing into a decision. In recent months, they were made aware of Erik ten Hag’s situation at Manchester United and have decided to take their time before making a final decision as their former manager could be available in the summer.
Ajax are closely monitoring his situation at the English club as there is a belief that he could make a return. Bringing ten Hag back is seen as the best decision as he has had a lot of success at the club in the past and with them struggling, he could help revive them.
