Erik ten Hag, a Dutch professional football manager and former player, is the head coach of Eredivisie club Ajax. He was born on February 2, 1970. From the end of the 2021–22 season, he will take over as manager of Manchester United in England.

For FC Twente, De Graafschap, RKC Waalwijk, and FC Utrecht, Ten Hag was mostly a centre-back. He spent three seasons with FC Twente, where he won the KNVB Cup in 2000–01.

In the 1990–91 season, Ten Hag won the Eerste Divisie with De Graafschap, ten years before winning the cup with FC Twente.

After the completion of the 2001–02 Eredivisie season, he retired from active playing at the age of 32 while playing for FC Twente.

Marc Overmars, the club’s proprietor, hired Ten Hag as manager of Go Ahead Eagles in the Eerste Divisie in 2012. He guided the Go-Ahead Eagles to their first promotion in 17 years during his lone season there.

He was named head coach of AFC Ajax on December 21, 2017, after Marcel Keizer was fired by the club. In the 2018–19 UEFA Champions League, he guided his Ajax club to the semi-finals for the first time since 1997, overcoming Real Madrid 4–1 in the round of 16 at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium, and also beating Juventus away 1–2 in the quarterfinals after drawing the first leg 1–1 at home.

On 5 May 2019, he won his first management title with Ajax, the 2018–19 KNVB Cup, after defeating Willem II in the final. Ajax, headed by Ten Hag, won the Eredivisie following a 1–4 away victory over De Graafschap only ten days after winning the cup, bringing the double back to the club.
