Mitchell van der Gaag appears set to join his Ajax boss Erik Ten Hag at Manchester United next season. The pair have worked together for the past year at Ajax after Van der Gaag was promoted from the club's Jong Ajax side last season and they have enjoyed success together, cruising through Ajax's Champions League group with six wins from six as well as winning the Eredivisie title.
However, the pair will have a large in-tray at United and have been brought in to solve a number of problems at the club, with problems in the dressing room a big priority for the Dutch duo. Van der Gaag will bring a wealth of experience alongside fellow assistant Steve McLaren with the hope of bringing harmony to the club in the pursuit of major trophies.
Van der Gaag has been a successful manager in his own right, managing Portuguese side Belenenses to the 2012/13 second division title in Portugal as well as spells with Eindhoven, Excelsior and NAC in the Netherlands. This experience will be key in what will be one of the most important seasons in the history of Manchester United.

However, he is unlikely to have encountered problems such as the ones faced by United right now, with global superstars to keep happy.
