“I’m not available for two years”: Ten Hag rules out Netherlands job

Twente technical director Erik ten Hag has shut down speculation linking him with the Netherlands national team job, insisting he is fully committed to his current role. Speaking to RTV Oost, the former Manchester United boss made it clear that a return to coaching – especially with Oranje – is not on the agenda anytime soon. “Right now, for the next two years, I am not available. I made this choice, it was a conscious decision. I weighed everything carefully. I came here to help Twente move forward. That’s my complete focus at the moment,” ten Hag said. Earlier reports suggested that Arne Slot is in talks regarding the position, and ten Hag’s statement effectively rules him out of the running for the foreseeable future.
