Confirmed: How Manchester United could line up under Erik ten Hag with Cristiano Ronaldo

 Erik ten Hag will become the permanent

 manager at Man United after finishing

 this season with Ajax.




Interesting times are ahead for Manchester


 United and their supporters certainly have


 reason to get excited once again after 


what has been a dismal season. Erik ten 


Hag will step into the hot seat after finishing


 this campaign with Ajax and attentions 


have already turned to his potential recruits.



Number one priority for United is a top-level


 holding midfielder. They missed out on that 


position last summer but did manage to bring


 in Jadon Sancho, Raphael Varane and 


Cristiano Ronaldo.



Sancho has shown glimpses of the blistering


 form that made him such a hit at Borussia


 Dortmund and burst onto the scene with 


England, while Varane remains in credit


 amid chaos at centre-back.



Ronaldo has, meanwhile, done what Ronaldo


 does best. Silencing those who suggest he 


has been a 'problem', the five-time Ballon 


d'Or winner has scored 23 goals in all 


competitions while his current tally 


in the Premier League (17) has only been


 equalled by Son Heung-min from Tottenham


 and bettered by Liverpool sensation 


Mohamed Salah (22).



With regards to recruitment, Declan 


Rice was seen as the first port of call.


 However, there are growing suggestions 


West Ham will dig their heels in over 


a £120million-plus valuation.





As such, his England teammate Kalvin 


Phillips has emerged as a more realistic 


proposition and figures upstairs have 


put together the framework for a potential


 swoop during the upcoming window. 


Leeds expect him to stay, though, and 


they value him at around £60million.



Naturally, incoming manager Ten Hag 


continues to be linked with several 


Ajax players both past and present, including


 promising Netherlands defender Jurrien


 Timber and Antony - a Brazilian forward


 with goals and assists to go with the customary


 tricks.



Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong is 


another name who has been mooted amid 


suggestions the Catalans would be willing 


to grant him a reunion with Ten Hag for 


the princely sum of £72million. Here is a 


dream line-up the Dutchman might look 


to build around Ronaldo during his first


 window in charge.
