Ten Hag soon started working in Enschede. From February onwards he will be shown the ropes by the 74-year-old Streuer. The current technical director was supposed to say goodbye earlier, but came back temporarily due to the departure of Arnold Bruggink. Ten Hag signs a contract in the Grolsch Veste until mid-2028.

The Haaksbergen resident returns in a new position at the club where it all started for him. After his career as a player, which started in 1989, Ten Hag took his first steps as a trainer in the youth academy and later as an assistant to Fred Rutten.

He achieved success at Ajax, but subsequently had unhappy partnerships with Manchester United and Bayer Leverkusen. He was quickly fired from the German club. It is striking that Ten Hag’s successor at United, Ruben Amorim, was fired by the English club yesterday.

Ten Hag excited about return

“I think it is very nice and special to return to FC Twente, where I have been a supporter in Het Diekman since I was young,” says Ten Hag on the club website of his new employer. “My football and coaching career started here.”

“With my experience in the field of youth development, team building and top sports culture, I want to work with the Supervisory Board, management and staff to strengthen the technical foundation of FC Twente, so that the club can sustainably realize its potential as a regional showcase.”
