Erik ten Hag and wife Bianca greet fans outside Dutch pancake house as Man Utd manager enjoys weekend off

ERIK TEN HAG was greeted by fans outside a Dutch pancake house as he enjoyed his weekend off.

The Manchester United boss had been due to take his side to Crystal Palace today, only for the match to be called off following the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

Instead he found himself cycling through Altrincham with wife Bianca, and was made to feel particularly at home.

The 52-year-old passed by family-run pancake house Papa Dutch.

He grinned as he did so and stopped to greet fans.

Ten Hag was happy to pose for photos with thrilled supporters too.

He donned a white jacket and grey trousers as he cruised around on his bike alongside his beloved wife.

The duo have been particularly active this weekend, also cycling through Cheshire on Saturday.

After a baptism of fire, Ten Hag is starting to get to grips with life as Man Utd manager.

After an opening day 2-1 defeat to Brighton and a 4-0 humiliation at Brentford, the Red Devils spun together consecutive Prem wins against Liverpool, Southampton, Leicester and Arsenal.

They were taken back down to earth somewhat on Thursday, however, when a much-changed team were beaten 1-0 by Real Sociedad at Old Trafford in the Europa League.

Lisandro Martinez was harshly penalised for handball in the box in the second-half, with Brais Mendez tucking away the resulting spot kick just shy of the hour mark.

United are set to be back in action on Thursday, when they make the long trip to Moldova to face FC Sheriff.
