Constructing Old Trafford: Manchester United Still Eyes on Erik Ten Hag, Nistelrooy Would Become Right-Hand (1)

Manchester United concluded last season with poor result--premierleague.com

Due to his poor record, Erik Ten Hag certainly can't rely on just 'confidence' if United does sign him to a contract for the next season.

In a realistic response to contract rumors, he acknowledged the need to earn trust from the fans and the club.

"Manchester United and I still have to find an agreement for the new contract. This isn't easily done; we are still going to have to talk about this," Ten Hag stated.

Ruud van Nistelrooy's Potential Role

According to The Mirror, Erik Ten Hag's new contract signing could be more special than before, as he is connected to another Dutchman familiar to Manchester United fans: former striker Ruud van Nistelrooy.

Van Nistelrooy, who has been unemployed since leaving his coaching position at PSV in 2023, is rumored to be joining Ten Hag's coaching staff.

This move has received comments from Italian football expert Fabrizio Romano, who linked Nistelrooy with his senior.

"Man United has submitted a proposal to bring back Nistelrooy," Romano stated on X (former Twitter). "The Dutch will make his decision soon."

Before being linked with Erik Ten Hag's coaching staff, Van Nistelrooy was close to joining Burnley. However, due to his memorable time at Old Trafford as a striker, the former Dutch striker would likely choose his former club. (Dony Ahmad Prasetyo)
