Manchester United are close to appointing incoming coach Erik ten Hag's assistant.
The Dutchman will take over in the summer from interim boss Ralf Rangnick.
With ten Hag set to oversee a squad overhaul, he will need trusted personnel by his side.
According to Fabrizio Romano, he is likely to get his current Ajax assistant Mitchell van der Gaag in the same role at United.
Van der Gaag is negotiating his contract with United, and the deal is expected to conclude in the coming weeks.
Ten Hag is likely to add others to his coaching staff, with ex-United assistant Steve McClaren also linked with a job in his backroom staff.
