The worst-kept secret in football has been confirmed: Erik ten Hag will be the next Manchester United manager. The Ajax head coach has agreed to replace interim manager Ralf Rangnick in the summer, APA reports citing The Guardian.

The Dutchman has signed a three-year deal at Old Trafford and has plenty of work to do with a club who currently sit sixth in the Premier League. Nemanja Matic has already announced his departure, Paul Pogba is out of contract and numerous others could be sold off as part of rebuild.

Ten Hag has earned plaudits for his work at Ajax where he has won two Eredivisie titles and impressed with a young side in the Champions League, playing an exciting brand of football that some hope he can replicated in the Premier League.

We will bring you all the news and reaction from the announcement in the blog.
