The report reads His work at Ajax and his debut season in England has been given more credence than the current injury-riddled campaign, in which Ten Hag also had to manage through a protracted takeover of the club.Before Ten Haag was shortlisted, Ralf Rangnick turned Bayern's offer down after Julian Nagelsmann and Xabi Alonso. The post Bayern Munich shortlist embattled Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag to take over from Tuchel this summer appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
