ERIK TEN HAG is set for a £12 million jackpot when he signs a new five-year deal this summer.
Manchester United will reward the Dutchman for a brilliant first season in charge by handing him a fresh contract until 2028.
Ten Hag, 53, would also get a £3m-a-year pay hike – and the uncertainty over United’s ownership will NOT affect the offer.
He has indicated that he is keen on the three-year extension to the deal he signed when he arrived from Ajax last summer.
United appointed him on a shorter term contract than previous managers, after having their fingers burned in the past with hefty pay-offs.
Yet Ten Hag has created a huge impression in just over half a season.

He has already established United in the top four and won the Carabao Cup.
They are favourites to win the Europa League and face Brighton in the FA Cup semi-finals.
Ten Hag had talks with Old Trafford executives recently about summer business.

And he was given firm assurances from the Glazers he will be backed, regardless of who owns the club.
Talks on his contract will step up once the season has finished.
However, neither side expects any problems.
