Man Utd boss Ten Hag considers Ajax midfielder Edson Alvarez
Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is considering a return to Ajax for a new midfield addition.
While Ten Hag is keen on Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong, the Athletic says an alternative could emerge at Ajax this summer.
Ten Hag is a big fan of Mexico international Edson Alvarez and he believes the midfielder can handle the demands of the Premier League.
With Barca demanding €80m to sell De Boer, United could be forced to seek an alternative and Edson is under consideration.
Declan Rice (West Ham United) and Kalvin Philips (Leeds United) are logical options, but they are potentially too expensive with United planning to strengthen several positions this summer.
