ERIK TEN HAG has been promised massive funds to rebuild Manchester United – despite plans by the Glazers to sell the club.
Boss Ten Hag splashed out an incredible £230million last summer on Casemiro, Antony, Lisandro Martinez and Tyrell Malacia.
And he claims Old Trafford chiefs have vowed to give him “more money for this project.”
The club’s US owners, the Glazers, are willing to listen to offers, potentially bringing an end to their 17-year ownership.

“It will be even better because more money will become available for this project.
“I was informed by the club, I’m not talking with the owners about this issue.
“My information is that it will only be good things because there will be more investment, which is good.”
Ten Hag wants to bring in a replacement for sacked striker Cristiano Ronaldo when the January transfer window opens.
