And now, it's been officially confirmed Ten Hag signs the contract as new Leverkusen head coach to replace Xabi Alonso. The contract will last for 2 years, until June 2027.
And one of the reasons why it had to be Ten Hag even though he failed at Man United is because Leverkusen believes in his ability, just like he did at Ajax which dominated Dutch football from 2018 - 2022.
Source: Official, confirmed. Erik ten Hag signs in as new Bayer Leverkusen head coacFor Ten Hag this is not a bad option, Bayer is a pretty strong team. The most important thing is that this summer after Alonso leaves they do not sell their key players. But I think after becoming champions last season they will be ambitious enough to want to repeat that success again. Ten Hag is quite a good coach he just ended up at Manchester United at a very difficult time. I hope that at Bayer he will be able to achieve much better results than he did at Manchester United. Also I see the news that De Bruyne is moving to Napoli. Thirty three years old is not such a big age. I think he still has a few very good seasons left at Napoli. By the way Napoli got him as a free agent.
