Ralf Rangnick is the next permanent coach of Man Utd

Jaap Stam he warned Manchester United that Erik ten Hag would have to deal with another animal if he were appointed the next club boss.

The Red Devils are still looking for a permanent successor to the interim boss Ralf Rangnick, who has already expressed his admiration for the work done by Ten The Hague Ajax since 2017. The Dutchman is one of two outstanding candidates for a hot spot at Old Trafford in addition to a bad fire Paris Saint-Germain gaffer Mauricio Pochettino and is even ready to answer the SOS call of the club.

However, if the keys were handed over to Ten Hague, Stam believes that his compatriot will face the difficult task of taking a step forward from Eredivisie and Premier League. “Ten Hague are doing very well at Ajax, making the team a tough opponent for everyone in Europe and the Netherlands,” the former United States defender said. Sky Sports Italy, over A sports story.

“He is very good at showing players what they need to do and also improving individual players. At Ajax, he obviously has the financial means to grow a team with young players. For him, Man United would be something different compared to what he is experiencing. The Netherlands. He has to take this step forward in his career. “

The Red Devils have been without a permanent boss for almost four months since firing Stam’s former teammate at Old Trafford. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. However, as United may face a five-year drought for trophies at the end of this season, their former sixth-placed player told the one taking over the role that he must rely on Cristiano Ronaldo to have the Red Devils shoot again.

“Solskjaer did a good job of bringing the club back into the top five, but it lacks the extra quality to get back on the winning path. Rangnick came along and some players have struggled to adjust,” Stam added. “So Ronaldo did not play in the derby scored three hits against Tottenham. It’s always hard to understand what’s going on in the dressing room, but Ronaldo has shown his strength.

“You have to involve someone like him in decisions; you have to talk to him. He is essential to the locker room; he helps you raise the level of the team. At Man United they don’t always play well, we should dominate more games and I think we should do more. I hope the club makes a better decision next season; they have to get back to the top. “

Ten Hague, enjoying another sensational home season in Amsterdam and competing in Champions League, has long been considered an opportunity with the elite and responded directly to connections with the Red Devils earlier this month. “At the moment, I’m only working with Ajax and I don’t have to think about the future anymore,” the Ajax manager was quoted as saying. Trouw.

“The focus is on this season. It shouldn’t be a topic at the moment. The topic is: how are we going to win matches?” Meanwhile, Rangnick praised Ten Hague, who was said to be his favorite choice to succeed him as permanent boss.

“So far we have not talked about it, no one, not only [football director] John Murtough, but no one else, ”the acclaimed German coach recently revealed Sky Sports. “We haven’t had that topic in the last weeks and months since I’ve been here.”

“I know my opinion [of who should take the job] but we haven’t talked about it yet, so I can tell you that. I don’t know him as a person to begin with.

“Obviously I see developments in Ajax since he’s been there, I know something about his work when he was Bavaria Munich and that he is one of the best coaches in Europe, that is obvious, but there are a few other top coaches.

“Like I said, we haven’t talked about any new directors so far, so we haven’t talked about him either.” Although it may be some time before United’s decision, they certainly do not lack votes on the situation.
