“Everyone knows each other in the industry. There are always talks with representatives from other clubs, that’s normal. Manchester United is a great club with great fans. But I can only repeat myself: My full focus is completely on Ajax. We are already planning for the new season,” Ten Hag was quoted by Sport 1.

“My focus is currently only on Ajax. But in football, you never know. I don’t want to rule anything out. I’m currently employed here at Ajax to perform,” he added. Ten Hag’s current contract at Ajax expires in 2023 but he might just move to Manchester United at the end of this ongoing season.
