Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong gave a positive reaction after a message from a Manchester United fan, MySportDab reports.
He reacted to a claim that Erik Teg Hag is waiting for him at Manchester United.
De Jong has been heavily linked with a transfer to Old Trafford this summer after Ten Hag was confirmed as new manager.
De Jong and Ten Hag worked well at Ajax, and there is hope that they can work together again.
It remains unknown if United will be able to sign the player this summer transfer window.
But, one fan made it clear that he wants De Jong at Manchester United next season.
After Barcelona’s 3-2 friendly match win against A-League All-Stars, De Jong went to Barca fans.
One fan then said in excitement: “Erik ten Hag is waiting for you, come to Manchester United.”
De Jong just smiled and waved back to the fan.

After ending the season with Barca, De Jong will now join the Netherlands squad for the UEFA Nations League Matches.
The Dutch player will hope that his future is sorted out before the start of next season.
Right now, Barcelona are under pressure to sell so they can make good transfer this summer due to the club’s financial situation.
However, Coach Xavi is not exactly happy about losing the Dutchman.
Speaking in a press conference, he said: “I have it countless times that Frenkie is a very important player for us.
“He’s a crucial man. Then we also have a financial situation here and a decision has to be made in general.”
At Barca, De Jong played 139 matches but has only won the Copa del Rey.
He still has four years left on his current contract having joined from Ajax in 2019.
