Ajax manager Erik ten Hag responded furiously when addressed on a potential move to Manchester United ahead ofgroup team’s Eredivisie clash with Sparta Rotterdam on Saturday.

Man United are accepted to be nearly appointing Ten Hag as their new manager following effective discussions between the two gatherings throughout the most recent few weeks.

The Red Devils have seen their hopes of a top-four finish in the Premier League table take a hit in recent weeks, but Ajax are currently involved in a title race, sitting seven points clear of PSV Eindhoven at the top of the division.

The Amsterdam giants beat Sparta Rotterdam 2-1 on Saturday evening, but when questioned about a move to Man United ahead of the match, Ten Hag gave an angry response.

“We are busy with training and with the matches,” Ten Hag told ESPN. “That way you keep the focus on it. I want to talk about the game and not about other things and whether or not I’ve had conversations. I won’t comment on rumours. Questions about the game or I am going inside.”

The 52-year-old, who had an interview with Man United at the end of last month, has won two league titles and two Dutch Cups since taking charge of Ajax in December 2017.

'That is what they didn't do' - Erik explains what his boys failed to do at Brentford loss

Talking his disappointment at Manchester United’s 4-0 misfortune to Brentford this Saturday, Erik ten Hag said in his post-match interview: “Difficult for me and a surprise. The team has to take the responsibility and I feel sorry for the fans, we let them down.

“I asked them [the players] to play with belief and take responsibility, that is what they didn’t do.

“Only when we stick together we will overcome it — don’t get me wrong, the manager is the main responsibility and I take that but I have to give them belief and they have to get it by themselves.

“Mistakes are part of football, you have to keep going but you have [to] especially act — It [three subs at half-time] was about bringing fresh ones. I could have changed all eight others as well.”

Ten Hag has plainly not kept down in his evaluation and United just have themselves to fault for this wreck.

The Red Devils are currently winless in their first two Premier League games, having conceded six goals as of now.

As per RMC Sport writer Sacha Tavolieri, a level two source, Manchester United have agreed with Veronique Rabiot based on personal conditions for her son Adrien.

United have previously settled on an exchange with Juventus and were just trusting that Rabiot will green-light the arrangement.

The 27-year-old was reportedly demanding a pay rise, a regular place in the starting XI and a signing-on bonus to move to Old Trafford. It’s unclear if United have agreed to all those demands.

Director of Football John Murtough flew to Italy on Friday to meet with Veronique and Adrien. It looks like the meeting was successful after all.

Rabiot is expected to sign a contract till 2026 and will be in Manchester next week to complete his medical.
