Confirmed: Manchester United set to bring in legend Van persie as to play this role , club explains why he will be in Manchester managerial crew ,and why .

 


Erik ten Haag has earmarked fellow

 Dutchman Robin van Persie about 

returning to Manchester United 

as part of his backroom staff.




Ten Haag, 52, is already preparing 


for life at Old Trafford should United 


chiefs decide to appoint him as their 


new manager.



The Ajax boss is understood to 


be keen on taking Van Persie with 


him to Manchester, with initial talks 


said to be ongoing.





During his time with the Red Devils, 


Van Persie netted 26 goals at the 


club and won the Golden Boot in 


2013, when United last won the Premier


 League under Sir Alex Ferguson.



Van Persie is currently taking his coaching


 badges and working with Feyenoord's


 Under-16 side, coaching his son Shaqueel.



But the ex-Manchester United striker 


is keen on a return to the Premier League


 should Ten Hag take the reins at Old 


Trafford.



The club would have to pay in the 


region of £5million as compensation for


 the final 12 months of Ten Hag's contract


 once they lodged an official approach.



Ten Hag, however, inserted a get-out


 clause in the deal he signed a year 


ago and it can be triggered for just 


(€2million) £1.68million.



Ajax chief executive Edwin van der Sar 


has offered the Ajax boss the chance 


to double his current salary which would


 see him earn £4million a year at the 


Eredivisie side, should decide to stay put.





Ten Hag revealed to the Dutch 


champions last April he would only sign


 their two-year contract offer if he could


 include an 'escape clause' which will 


become active this summer.



Meanwhile, Manchester United have 


also been linked with several names 


should he take over at Old Trafford, 


with the Dutchman expected to raid 


his current employers.



Brazilian winger Anthony, 22, who


 has netted 12 goals and contributed


 to eight assists so far this season 


is one name on the agenda.



Another is centre-back 



 Timber, 20, who would immediately


 address United's defensive problems. 


The Netherland's international and will


 be part of Louis van Gaal's squad for 


the Qatar World Cup in eight months time.



Moroccan full-back Noussair 


Mazraoui has also be linked in recent times.

Breaking news: Ralf Ragnick set to sign his gladiator defender today from Dortmund , before hearing anything from Manchester United board .

  Manchester United have made initial  enquiries about a possible move for  Borussia Dortmund defender Manuel  Akanji. United have been prioritising a defensive  midfielder and a striker for the summer  but talks over Swiss international Akanji  indicate Ralf Rangnick wants a new  centre back also. Defender Phil Jones is still hoping  to leave despite turning down a move to  Bordeaux last month while Eric Bailly  remains unhappy at his limited  playing time. Question marks have also been  raised by Rangnick regarding the level  of Harry Maguire's performances and an  experienced defender such as Akanji  would increase competition. The 26-year-old has 16 months left  on his contract and is valued at  £26million by Dortmund who bought  him from Basel for £15m in 2018. The German club have offered Akanji a  new contract worth around £6.7million  a year but his representatives are understood  to be pushing for closer to £8.3m in  wages, around £162,000 a week. Despite reports in German
