Manchester United chiefs are clashing with manager Erik ten Hag over their midfield transfer targets.

The Daily Express says Erik ten Hag has clashed with United chiefs over midfield transfer targets Jude Bellingham and Frenkie de Jong.

It's claimed Ten Hag would still prefer to come back in for Barcelona's De Jong, but club supremos prefer 19-year-old Borussia Dortmund hero Bellingham.

United failed to land Holland ace De Jong in the summer despite having a £64million bid accepted.

And Ten Hag has stayed in touch with Barca about the midfielder.

The Dutchman rates De Jong as a “virtually irreplaceable" part of his jigsaw for reviving the Red Devils.

Liverpool and Chelsea have also been linked with England ace Bellingham.
