ERIK TEN HAG is relishing his Europa League showdown with Jose Mourinho in Istanbul this week.
Ten Hag's Manchester United take on Fenerbahce in the Turkish city on Thursday looking to get their first win in the competition this season.
Mourinho will be desperate to stop that happening and pile the pressure on Ten Hag.
Mourinho managed United between 2016 and 2018 and won three trophies, before leaving in acrimonious circumstances following a falling out with the board.
The Portuguese took charge of Fenerbahce in the summer after his sacking by Roma.
Ten Hag recognises the significance of the clash with Mourinho's side but is not backing away from what is bound to be a mouthwatering encounter.
