The man who could one day be king in Manchester seems to be the Invisible Man on this spring afternoon in the city he calls home.
Erik ten Hag has brought trophies and entertainment to Amsterdam, his dashing Ajax team winning a host of admirers for their charge to the Champions League semi-finals in 2019.
Such is the progress they have made, it is a surprise that the last eight will take place next week without their involvement after being eliminated by Benfica.
There have been five trophies in four years under Ten Hag, with Ajax scoring 570 goals in 207 games.
