TEN HAG MAY GET HIS KANE WISH... BUT NOT AT OLD TRAFFORD

ERIK TEN HAG could get his wish to manage super-striker Harry Kane after all - with Bayern Munich hot on the Dutchman's heels.

Despite his troubles at Old Trafford after a season disrupted by damaging injuries, disciplinary issues with top stars and a huge behind-the-scenes shake-up following Sir Jim Ratcliffe's takeover, Ten Hag is still a wanted man.

Ten Hag admitted last week that Kane (right) was Manchester United's No.1 target last summer.

But with Munich bosses looking to replace out-going coach Thomas Tuchel and Ten Hag on their hit list, the United boss may soon be working with England star Kane.

The German giants have failed to seal deals for Bayer Leverkusen's Xabi Alonso, national boss Julian Nagelsmann and former United interim manager Ralf Rangnick.

And they have baulked at paying a £12million release clause to take Roberto De Zerbi from Brighton.

Now Ten Hag is high on their wish list - and viewed as a serious candidate having managed the Bayern B team between 2013-15 during Pep Guardiola's reign at the club.
