An international boss and former Manchester United manager warning another coach against taking the gig at Old Trafford. Premier LeagueVan Gaal: Ten Hag should choose a football club, not a commercial club19 HOURS AGO And so the circus continueth.

«Erik ten Hag is a great coach and that is always good for Manchester United, but Manchester United are a commercial club, so it's a difficult choice for a coach. He'd better go to a football club.” Those are the views of Netherlands coach Louis van Gaal, who managed United – the team that currently list Adidas, TeamViewer, Tezos, Kohler, Apollo Tyres, Cadbury, Canon Medical, Casillero del Diablo, Chevrolet, Chivas, DHL, Ecolab, HCL, Hua Ti Hui, Konami, Marriott Hotels, Maui Jim, Melitta, Mlily, Remington, Renewable Energy Group, Tag Heuer, Visit Malta as their global partners – for two years from 2014 to 2016 and has never been one to mince his words. He went on.

„I'm not going to advise him, he'll call me himself. But he must choose a football club and not a commercial club.” Tell us what you really think, and all that, but these words will carry some weight given Van Gaal’s own experience at United. Ten Hag, you’ve been warned, and there's a bloke down in Rome who might have some stories to put you off too.
