Erik ten Hag's first words for Manchester United

It is a great honour to be appointed manager of Manchester United and I am hugely excited by the challenge ahead.

I know the history of this great club and the passion of the fans, and I am absolutely determined to develop a team capable of delivering the success they deserve.

It will be difficult to leave Ajax after these incredible years, and I can assure our fans of my complete commitment and focus on bringing this season to a successful conclusion before I move to Manchester United.
