+1 for Erik ten Hag ➥ 2023— AFC Ajax (@AFCAjax) April 30, 2021
Ten Hag led Ajax to the Eredivisie title in the 2018/2019 season, won the KNVB Cup and reached the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League.
The 2019/2020 season was prematurely called to an end due to COVID-19, with Ajax at the top of the table.
This season Ajax finished third in their group in the Champions League and were knocked out of the Europa League by Roma at the quarter-final stage.
Ajax beat Vitesse to win the Dutch Cup earlier this week and need one more point from their remaining four Eredivisie matches to secure their 35th league title.
Tottenham's search for a manager goes on and it's believed they want to make an appointment before the end of the Premier League season.
