Manchester United fans couldn't help but share their delight after various news outlets reported that Erik ten Hag is on the verge of becoming the next manager at Old Trafford.

Sources have reportedly told ESPN that United have settled on Ten Hag to be their next boss. They claim that both chief executive Richard Arnold and co-chairman Joel Glazer are in agreement that the Dutchman is the best person to take United forward.

Mauricio Pochettino is also believed to have been considered for the role.
