Man Utd boss Erik ten Hag ‘determined’ to keep Eric Ramsay as Neil Warnock receives boost in chase for Barnsley job
ERIK TEN HAG is eager to keep Eric Ramsay at Manchester United, according to reports.
The 30-year-old was brought onboard as a first team coach at Old Trafford a year ago.
He has recently been the subject of interest from League One Barnsley, with the Tykes looking to replace sacked boss Poya Asbaghi following their relegation from the Championship.
Of United's previous regime, Michael Carrick and Kieran McKenna have both left in the last year, with the latter taking charge of League One Ipswich.
Interim boss Ralf Rangnick has also departed, as well as his assistant Chris Armas.
Mike Phelan has been deemed surplus to requirements, but Ten Hag wants Ramsay to join his staff that will include assistant Mitchell van der Gaag and Sir Alex Ferguson's former No2 Steve McClaren.

Ramsay already possesses an impressive coaching CV.
He worked as an Under-23s coach at Chelsea prior to joining United, having also worked for the Welsh FA, as well as Shrewsbury and Swansea.
Ramsay is multi-lingual, speaking French and Spanish.
Should he decide to stick around at Old Trafford, Barnsley will have to look elsewhere for a new boss.

According to SunSport's Alan Nixon, Neil Warnock would be interested in coming out of retirement to take charge at Oakwell.
The 73-year-old retired earlier this year following his stint at Middlesbrough, but has reversed such decisions in the past.
In addition to Ramsay and Warnock, Barnsley have been linked with Cheltenham manager Mike Duff and Burton Albion's Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink.
