Erik ten Hag is reluctant to return to Ajax in the summer amid the lack of clarity over his future at Manchester United.
The Dutchman is reportedly among a three-man shortlist to replace John van't Schip as manager for next season.
Speculation over Ten Hag's future has been rife ever since Ineos chief Sir Jim Ratcliffe took charge of sporting operations at the club.
Yet the Dutchman is not in a hurry to return home although he would likely seek a return to management in one of Europe's stronger leagues.
Despite a disappointing Premier League campaign, Ten Hag could yet end the season with silverware after guiding Manchester United to the FA Cup final; albeit in unusual circumstances following a collapse against Championship outfit Coventry City.
