Holland icon Marco van Basten urges Erik ten Hag to reunite with ex-Ajax star Hakim Ziyech and make the out-of-favour Chelsea winger one of his first signings as Man United's new boss

Marco van Basten has urged Erik ten Hag to make Chelsea winger Hakim Ziyech one of his first signings as Manchester United manager.

Ten Hag has already started work at Old Trafford just days after wrapping up the Eredivisie title with Ajax, insisting 'it's time to turn the switch now' and get the Red Devils back on track.

With the Dutchman looking to make his mark at United from the get go, Holland legend Van Basten believes a reunion with one of his former stars could bring success in his first season in Manchester.
