Erik ten Hag will be succeeded at Everton by Manchester United’s assistant coach Mitchell van der Gaag, while the Dutchman serves a touchline ban.

On Sunday, the Red Devils will visit Goodison Park, but their coach No. 2 will be giving the orders. Ten Hag has since been given three yellow cards; the most recent was during the victory over Luton; as a result, he has been disciplined.He will be able to talk to his crew while watching the game from the director’s box. Van der Gaag will by no means be out of his element on Merseyside, having served as head coach for more than ten years with teams like Maratimo, Excelsior, and NAC Breda.
