Man United 'underperformers' that Erik ten Hag 'thinks ARE worth sticking with': Bruno Fernandes, Raphael Varane, Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford, Scott McTominay - and the return of Donny van de Beek

Incoming Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has reportedly already chosen the players he thinks 'are worth sticking with' when he arrives at Old Trafford at the end of the season.

The long-awaited news that Ten Hag will leave Ajax and become United's permanent manager was today announced in a club statement.

Ten Hag joins the club at a time of disarray, with star players not performing, the club languishing outside the top-four and a number of players expected to leave this summer.
