Erik ten Hag, who has signed a three-year deal to succeed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, is just days away from starting work as Manchester United’s new manager.
The Dutchman recently won his third Eredivisie title in a row, and he could be in attendance when United play Crystal Palace on Sunday to finish their terrible season.
United are set to have one of their busiest summers in recent years, with six players already set to go on free transfers.
The club signed Eric Bailly to a new contract at the end of last season, but transfer guru Fabrizio Romano claims that the club is now willing to let him leave.
Similarly, Aaron Wan-Bissaka has had a difficult third season at the club, with versatile defender Diogo Dalot winning the right-back position under Ralf Rangnick.
The former Crystal Palace star is currently on the market, although any agreement to keep both players would be totally dependent on the offers made to them.
Erik ten Hag will have the power to decide any transfer moves this summer, but there’s little reason to believe he’ll try to keep Eric Bailly and Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who haven’t impressed this season.
Ten Hag will be in charge of a large overhaul this summer, and reducing the unwanted players might be his first priority. Ajax defender Jurrien Timber has been heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford and could potentially replace Bailly if he leaves.
Diogo Dalot has impressed Ten Hag, and the Portugal international remains ‘solid’ in his plans.
