He was spotted ar Heracles vs NAC Breda in the Eredivisie – the nearest match to his hometown of Haaksbergen - before paying a visit to FC Twente a week later to watch them play Ajax, another of his former clubs.
Ten Hag was left “devastated” by the sacking at Old Trafford and summed up his feelings in a heartfelt message to the fans, released shortly after Amorim was confirmed as his replacement. "I want to thank you for giving me this feeling and for your support.
"I also want to thank the staff in every department of the club for their unwavering support in good times and bad. We won two trophies - achievements that I will cherish for the rest of my life. Of course, my dream was to bring more trophies to the cabinet.
"Unfortunately, that dream has come to an end. I wish all Manchester United fans nothing but success, trophies and glory. Your support and the warmth I received from everyone at the club helped me feel at home. Thank you for this chapter in my life. Erik."
