Ajax head coach Erik ten Hag has called Manchester United "a great club with great fans", as the Dutchman continues to be linked with the managerial position at Old Trafford.
Ten Hag, who recently had an interview with the Red Devils, is believed to be the English club's number one voice to become their new head coach on a long-term basis.
The 52-year-old has said that his full focus is currently on Ajax, with the Dutch giants two points clear of second-placed PSV Eindhoven at the top of their domestic table.
However, the Dutchman has refused to rule out a move away from Amsterdam this summer, claiming that "in football, you never know".
"There are always talks with representatives from other clubs. Manchester United is a great club with great fans," Ten Hag told Sport1. "My full focus is completely on Ajax now. We are already planning for the new season".
"In football you never know. I don't want to rule anything out. I know that in football everything can change from one day to the next. If at some point I should decide to take the next step, I hope that Ajax people will understand."
Ten Hag, who is now seemingly ahead of Paris Saint-Germain's Mauricio Pochettino in the running for the role at Old Trafford, has won two league titles and two KNVB Cups since arriving at Ajax in 2017. body check tags ::
