RAFAEL VAN DER VAART took a surprise shot at Erik ten Hag on Dutch television yesterday when he said the manager "Is doing his best to become available".

It came as former Real Madrid and Spurs star Van der Vaart discussed Ajax's managerial options with former Barcelona and Stoke winger Ibrahim Afellay.

Ajax have had a disastrous season and find themselves fifth in the Dutch league.

When discussing how to rectify the club's situation, Afellay said: "Ajax need to give the club back in the hands of trusted people.

"If they just wait a little longer, there is a big chance Erik ten Hag will become available."

Van der Vaart then cheekily added: "Well, Erik ten Hag himself is doing his best too to become available."

The comment comes as Ten Hag finds himself coming under increasing pressure at United.

His position has been insecure since Sir Jim Ratcliffe's investment in Manchester United, with Ratcliffe refusing to publicly back Ten Hag.

Saturday's 1-1 draw with relegation battlers Burnley leaves United in sixth, one point ahead of Newcastle with the two teams still to play each other.

Should they be overhauled by the Geordies, United will be facing Europa Conference League qualification at best through the league.

They could still secure a Europa League spot if they win the FA Cup, but even reaching the final of that competition was achieved in embarrassing fashion.

The club gave away a three goal lead to Championship Coventry in the semi-final and needed penalties to reach the final.

Dutch reports claim that Erik ten Hag is Ajax's top target should he leave United at the end of this season.

Ten Hag had a wildly successful spell in charge in Amsterdam between 2017 and 2022 where he won the Dutch league three times and reached the Champions League semi-final in 2019.

It comes as United are reportedly considering both England boss Gareth Southgate and former Chelsea boss Graham Potter should the club part ways with Ten Hag at the end of the season.

Spartak Moscow have made a shock approach for the Scot, according to reports[/caption]

There are strong suggestions that the veteran gaffer will leave the London Stadium at the end of the season.

And according to reports, he could find himself in the dugout at the Otkritie Arena next season.

That's according to The Daily Mail, who claim Spartak have inquired about his "availability" in recent weeks.

The Russian outfit are on the hunt for a new manager following their decision to relieve Guille Abascal of his duties earlier this month.

And it's claimed they have identified Moyes as a potential successor to the Spaniard.

Moyes, however, is said to be "reluctant to commit" to the Moscow club at this moment in time.

Moyes' contract with the Hammers is set to expire at the end of the season.

The former Manchester United manager is set to hold talks with club owners after the campaign draws to a close.

A decision over his future is expected to be made during the post-season chat.

Moyes has refused to be drawn on his future, saying after his troops' 2-2 draw with Liverpool last weekend: "I've always said we'll make a decision at the end of the season.

                    <!-- End of Brightcove Player -->  

"I want things to be right on both sides and I'm quite cool about the whole thing at the moment.

"The team are showing up and doing the job."

Moyes' sole focus at this moment in time is trying to pull off the Hammers' Mission Impossible to qualify for the Europa Conference League.

He said: "Our points total is a good total for West Ham, if you look at our totals over all the Premier League years.

"We'll keep banging at the door.

"We finish with a really tough game at Manchester City so the next two games we'll look to get something.

"Today keeps us in the hunt."

West Ham will be back in action on Sunday afternoon, travelling to Stamford Bridge to take on Chelsea.

DENVER Nuggets star Michael Porter Jr. hasn't been afraid to give back to his parents who helped him reach the NBA.

Porter Jr. gifted cars to his mom and dad during his first two seasons in the NBA.

Porter Jr. also bought his dad a Tesla SUV for Christmas in 2020[/caption]

The Nuggets selected Porter Jr. with the No. 14 pick in the 2018 NBA Draft.

He signed a rookie contract with Denver that earned him about $2.5 million in 2018.

In that same year, Porter Jr. bought his mom, Lisa, a 2018 Ford Flex.

The NBA star posted an Instagram clip of himself gifting the SUV to the mother.

Both hugged each other as Lisa went inside the Ford SUV.

And Porter Jr.'s generosity didn't stop there.

In 2020, Porter Jr. surprised his dad, Michael Porter Sr., with a Tesla Model Y for Christmas.

A video showed the moment when Porter invited his dad outside through his garage.

The door opens and Porter Sr. sees the Tesla as he thinks it's his son's car.

But Porter Jr. says "Merry Christmas" to which the father realizes the electric SUV is for himself.

                    <!-- End of Brightcove Player -->  

Porter Sr. can be heard saying "Man, you didn't have to do this" to which his son answers back, "I didn't have to but I wanted to."

Less than a year later, Porter Jr. would receive a reward for his services from the Nuggets.

In September 2021, Denver signed Porter Jr. to a five-year, $172 million rookie extension.

They made the deal after the Missouri product averaged 19 points per game in the 2020 campaign.

In 2021, Porter Jr. only played in nine games and missed the rest of the season after undergoing back surgery.

Better days would be there for Porter in the 2022-23 season as he helped the Nuggets win their first NBA title in its history.

He also played in 81 games this season, posting 16.7 points per game along with an average of seven rebounds and 1.5 assists.

Porter Jr. averaged 22.8 points per game in Denver's first-round series win over the Los Angeles Lakers.

So far, Porter Jr. has made $79 million in career earnings.
