Erik Ten Hag has already made it clear that he wants to work with Cristiano Ronaldo next season. The Dutchman who will take over at United starting next season has publicly acknowledged his desire for CR7 to continue to be part of the Red Devils for the new season. And it seems the Portuguese also intend to stay.
Ten Hag will not join the Ajax party in Curacao, and will start work this week at his new club. The technician recently said:
"There are a lot of good players at United. "We have to make them function as a team, but especially Ronaldo, he is a giant."
Ronaldo, meanwhile, is enjoying the end of the season as he was photographed on a golf course in Cheshire. Last week the striker commented for the first time on Erik ten Hag. CR7 declared:
"What I know about Erik is that he did a fantastic job with Ajax. He is an experienced coach, but we have to give him time. Things have to change as he demands. I hope we succeed because if we do, it will be a success for all of Manchester. I wish him the best. We are happy and excited, not only as players, but also as fans. I wish him all the best and let us hope that next year we will win trophies. "
Ten Hag, meanwhile, once again confirmed the hard work that needs to be done to bring United back to one of Europe's elite teams. The Dutchman told the media:
"There is a lot of work to be done. But so it is with every club. There are a number of things that need to be organized within the staff but also in the selection of players. We will work intensively starting tomorrow. "
