The Manchester team has officially got tickets to next season’s Champions League after an epic 4-1 victory over Chelsea.
However, between MU and the new champion Man City, there is still a big gap (17 points on the chart). Ten Hag wants to narrow down to compete fairly for the Premier League throne.
To do that, the Dutch teacher admitted, MU needs to add factors of better professional quality.
Speaking on Sky Sports, Ten Hag said: “Participating in the Champions League is the basis for building and raising the standard of the team.
We need to strengthen in the summer transfer window. MU wants to compete for the title but let’s look at the reality.
The club is still far away, so there’s still work to be done. The first is to add even better players.”
MU procurement budget will depend on changing owners in the near future. The Glazer family deal continues to drag on as they haven’t closed the sale of the club to Qatari banker Sir Jim Ratcliffe.
However, recently MU has contacted a series of players and may have to spend more than £ 300 million for 5 names: Harry Kane, Mason Mount, Declan Rice, Kim Min-Jae and Frimmpong.
Ten Hag culminated in Harry Kane but to get the services of the English goalscorer, they need to meet the £ 100 million fee required from Tottenham.
Chelsea also shouted £ 85 million for the case of Mason Mount, even though the 24-year-old midfielder has only one year left on his contract.
