Erik ten Hag has denied that his agent, Kees Vos, has too much influence regarding Manchester United signings by pointing to the veto the manager and the club each has regarding transfers.

Vos heads the Dutch agency SEM, which has Rasmus Højlund as a client, the Dane joining United in the summer for an initial £64m. Vos was also involved in this month’s loan deal for Sofyan Amrabat. Ten Hag was asked about Vos’s influence.
