Manchester United new boy Tyrell Malacia has given his thoughts on his new boss, Erik ten Hag.

The Red Devils announced Malacia as their first signing of the 2022 summer transfer window on Tuesday afternoon:


Malacia has signed a four-year deal until 2026 and is believed to have set United back €15m plus €2m in add-ons.

But before he was officially announced as a United player, Malacia gave his thoughts on his now boss.

The 22-year-old was full of praise for the Dutchman, stating:

"Mr Ten Hag is a very good coach and also a warm person, so I had a good conversation with him and I have a very good connection with him," Malacia told De Telegraaf. "That's important, because if all goes well we'll be working together for many years.

"I'm looking forward to that, because I think I can learn a lot from him. He has a record for improving players individually, as long as they are prepared to work hard."

On leaving Feyenoord, the club he has spent all of his career with so far, Malacia added: "My team-mates at Feyenoord were very sad because I played together with some for so long and we really built a bond. Everyone wished me the best and I will always keep in touch with a lot of those guys.

"Feyenoord is my club - and it always will be. I am a boy of the club and of the city, so yes Feyenoord is my home and is forever in my heart."
