Ten Hag is anticipated to quit Ajax and become United’s next permanent manager this summer. He has been touted as the favorite to take over at Old Trafford this summer. He has been interviewed for the part and is currently the clear favorite to succeed Ralf Rangnick.

Should he be installed as the German’s successor, he will have a massive struggle. This summer, United desperately needs to press the reset button, and the first-team squad is set to endure significant changes.

Senior characters Paul Pogba, Edinson Cavani, and Juan Mata are poised to depart the club when their contracts expire at the end of June, and conjecture surrounds Ronaldo’s future, despite the fact that his current contract does not expire until the summer of 2023.

With 18 goals this season, he is United’s top scorer, but doubts have been raised about whether the club should keep him.

Former Netherlands international Van Hooijdonk, on the other hand, believes Ten Hag should kick Ronaldo out. However, he has questioned if he is capable.

Van Hooijdonk told Studio Voetbal, “It’s a fantastic starting point.” “On the other hand, it’s still quite agitated right now.

“The major question is if you can get [it] to settle down.” You’ll have to deal with Pogba and Ronaldo as well.

“Ronaldo, in particular, will be systematically phased out of the team. With Pogba, we’ll just have to wait and see.

“Is he capable of breaking the unpleasant news to these guys?”
