Ten Hag worked with Lindelof for over two years when he was the manager of Manchester United. He sees Lindelof as a suitable replacement for Jonathan Tah, who left Bayer Leverkusen to join Bayern Munich.
According to reports, Bayer Leverkusen is now making efforts to sign Lindelof. The 31-year-old defender has been linked to a potential move to Italy, but the chance to play under Ten Hag again may be an attractive option for him.
