Erik ten Hag is keen to bring Ajax assistant Mitchell van der Gaag with him to Manchester United, according to a report.

Erik ten Hag is reportedly keen to bring Ajax assistant Mitchell van der Gaag with him to Manchester United.

The current Ajax head coach is believed to be on the verge of becoming the English club's next permanent manager, with the role due to begin at the end of the 2021-22 campaign.

Ten Hag has allegedly agreed a four-year contract with the Red Devils, having emerged as the leading candidate for the role since undergoing a successful interview at the end of last month.

According to The Athletic, the Dutchman wants to bring current Ajax assistant Van der Gaag with him to Old Trafford.

The 50-year-old previously worked with the reserve side in Amsterdam, while he has had spells managing the likes of Maritimo, Belenenses, Excelsior and NAC.

Steve McClaren, who worked as an assistant at Man United under Sir Alex Ferguson, has also allegedly been in touch with Ten Hag to discuss a move to Old Trafford.

Ralf Rangnick will continue to lead the 20-time English champions on an interim basis for the remainder of the season before becoming a consultant for the Red Devils this summer.
