Erik ten Hag wants to bring Ajax fitness coach Alessandro Schoenmaker with him to Manchester United, according to a report.

Erik ten Hag reportedly wants to bring Ajax fitness coach Alessandro Schoenmaker with him to Manchester United, with the Dutchman preparing to take charge of the Red Devils.

Man United are believed to be close to confirming Ten Hag as their next permanent manager, with the 52-year-old set to move to the 20-time English champions at the end of the season.

According to The i, Ten Hag has already decided that he wants to bring Ajax's head of performance Schoenmaker with him to Old Trafford.

The report claims that Schoenmaker, who was also with the Dutchman at FC Twente, is viewed as the ideal coach to improve the physical conditioning and fitness of the Man United players.

The 42-year-old has previously worked in English football for Nottingham Forest, Derby County, Newcastle United and Crystal Palace.

The Brazilian is allegedly highly respected when it comes to injury prevention, while he has overseen the fitness, strength and conditioning of players during his coaching career.

Meanwhile, Rene Meulensteen, who was a first-team coach at Man United under Sir Alex Ferguson between 2007 and 2013, is allegedly being considered as Ten Hag's assistant.
