Erik Ten Hag, who just won the Dutch League with Ajax Amsterdam, immediately took over as the new coach of Manchester United.
Erik Ten Hag will start managing the Manchester United squad next season.
As his tenure begins, Erik Ten Hag has often spoken about his new team, including the important role of Cristiano Ronaldo.
Erik Ten Hag will only coach David De Gea and his friends after the 2021-2022 season ends.
The Dutch coach will reorganize the disheveled Red Devils along with Ralf Rangnick, who has taken over as club advisor.
This time, the former Ajax Amsterdam coach talked about one of the players he would defend.
Cristiano Ronaldo is confirmed to be included in his game plan next season.
For the famous Dutch coach, Ronaldo will have an important role under his cold hands.
The coach who has a characteristic bald head style does not want CR7 to leave in the transfer market next summer.
“Of course I want to keep Cristiano at Man United. He is very important for this club,” said Erik Ten Hag, quoted from twitter Fabrizio Romano, Tuesday (17/5/2022).
This is because Ronaldo has the power to boost the morale and spirit of other Red Devil teams. He has a strong ambition to win every game he plays.
“Ronaldo is a big player, because of everything he has shown so far and because of how ambitious he is,” added Ten Hag.
Moreover, the Portugal national team captain recorded brilliant statistics this season. He became the most prolific player with a collection of 24 goals and three assists from 39 matches in all competitions.
It will be interesting to see what kind of synergy these two people will have at Man United.
Of course, all Manchester Red fans hope that Ten Hag can spread a positive aura so that Man Untied can return to winning ways.
Ten Hag admitted that he had made many demands before joining Old Trafford. It is not yet known what Ten Hag’s request is, but he will take full responsibility for it.
“I made demands before I arrived (at Manchester United). If the club didn’t fulfill them, I would not have taken the job. I am responsible, I will be judged on the results,” Ten Hag told Trouw, quoted by Pedia content from @ TheEuropeanLad, Saturday (23/4/2022).
One of the demands given by Ten Hag is to have control in the transfer market.
In addition, Ten Hag said he was ready to work with the management of Manchester United before making various decisions.
“I don’t want to be the ruler, I will cooperate, but having a say in the transfer is a condition for me,” he said.
