Erik Ten Hag Playing Career

Erik Ten Hag was a central defender during his playing career. He focused on technique rather than going physical against his opponents. He mainly spent time in the Dutch leagues during his playing career. He has played with FC Twente, De Graafschap, RKC Waalwijk and FC Utrecht. He featured in more than 336 matches but couldn’t reach the top level due to his limitation in skills. He only won two titles: Eerste Divisie with De Graafschap in the 1990–91 season and KNVB Cup in the 2000–01 season.

Erik Ten Hag Managerial career

Erik Ten Hag started his journey with Go Ahead Eagles in the Eerste Divisie. Only in his first season with the club, he helped them get a promotion. After one season, he moved to Bayern Munich II, where he coached from 2013 to 2015. 

The Dutch manager’s next job was playing the role of a Sporting Director and head coach at FC Utrecht, whom he led into Europa League qualification in only his second season.

Erik Ten Hag joined Ajax on 21 December 2017. He didn’t get much success in the first season as he took some time evaluating and organizing his team. As he didn’t have much financial backing, he had to rely on youngsters who came out of the Ajax academy. 

Erik Ten Hag led his team to the 2018/19 UEFA Champions League semi-final by beating Juventus and Real Madrid in the knockout stages. His team suffered a disappointing loss at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur after the English team made a comeback in the second leg.

The Dutch manager lifted the Eredevish and KNVB Cup in the 2018/19 season. As most of his players from the 2018/19 class joined big-league clubs after that season, he couldn’t manage to lift another title in the next season. 

Ten Hag’s Ajax team flourished in the 2020/21 season, winning the Eredevish and KNVB Cup. His managerial success has been a result of his deep understanding of the game. He mainly uses a vertical tiki-taka style. His philosophy is a mixture of Rinus Michels’ total football and Pep Guardiola’s tiki-taka.
