Winger Antony, on the other hand, appears to be on his way to accompany ten Hag out the Ajax exit door in the near future.
The story comes from Le10Sport, who claims that a number of prominent European clubs are interested in signing the promising attacker in the summer.
A report from the Telegraph suggested that ten Hag, who is being courted for the impending vacant manager's position at United, would try to bring Antony to Old Trafford with him if he were to be selected as the club's permanent manager.
But even if ten Hag succeeds Rangnick, United now faces a serious challenge in their pursuit of one of the Eredivisie's brightest stars.
Barcelona and Bayern Munich are also interested in signing the 22-year-old Brazilian attacker, but reports say that Paris Saint-Germain has stepped up its pursuit in recent weeks, hinting that the nine-time Ligue 1 champions are leading the race to capture the exciting Brazilian.
Ajax signed Antony from Sao Paulo in 2020, and since then, his stock has risen dramatically in the club's hierarchy.
Additionally, he has excelled for Brazil on the international level, earning gold at the Olympics in Rio last year as a 22-year-old defender.
As the youthful attacker discussed his gold medal achievement, he gave credit to his time at Ajax for his international accomplishments.
"I owe a debt of gratitude to Ajax and have grown to appreciate and like this wonderful club."
79 games in all competitions have seen the charismatic South American score 22 goals and assist another 20 in the two years since his move to the Dutch capital.
