It is believed to be an oral agreement. He is expected to participate with a contract of up to four years. Ajax is aware of the situation and has yet to reach an agreement with United. United will also need to complete the details and paperwork, and there will be no written agreement or announcement until Ajax face PSV Eindhoven in the Dutch Cup final on April 17. Athletic understands that its coaching staff will also be finalized in due course. United want to respect both Ajax and Ten Hague, as they have a cup final to play in and are still aiming to be Eredivisie champions. Manchester United and Ten Hague representatives SEG declined to comment. Ten Haag will replace Ralph Rangnick, who has been on a temporary basis since former coach Ole Gunnar Solskj .r was sacked by the Premier League in November. Paris Saint-Germain coach Mauricio Pochettino was also shortlisted for the club, but chose not to appoint the former Tottenham manager. Ten Haag has been Ajax’s coach since December 2017. He joined the Dutch club from the second team of Bayern Munich, where he worked alongside Pep Guardiola, the coach of Manchester City. The 52-year-old led Ajax to the semifinals of the Champions League in 2019, where he lost dramatically to Tottenham of Pochettino. Ajax won the Eredivisie title in 2019 and 2021 and is currently at the top of the table with four points. (Photo: Henk Jan Dijks / BSR Agency / Getty Images)
