Man Utd were 'hours' away from losing transfer target to Liverpool after Jurgen Klopp chat<\/h3>\n

Erik ten Hag was impressed with Benni McCarthy after his very first reserve-team training session, claims the South African. Manchester United youngsters Alejandro Garnacho and Amad Diallo were both involved, with McCarthy himself admitting that he ‘knocked it out of the park’.<\/p>\n

Ten Hag and McCarthy had common ground even before working together at Old Trafford. The Dutchman previously spent five years in charge of Ajax, where McCarthy enjoyed a prolific spell as a player in the 1990s.<\/p>\n

It still came as a shock to the former Blackburn Rovers striker when Ten Hag invited him down from his home in Edinburgh to take a training session at Carrington, with a view to joining his backroom staff as an attack-minded coach.<\/p>\n

But McCarthy claims to have done enough in his first session with the likes of Garnacho and Amad to convince Ten Hag about what he can bring to the table.<\/p>\n

“I just read a couple of weeks before that [Ten Hag] had just signed for Man United, what would he possibly want with me?” McCarthy told South African radio station 947.<\/p>\n

“He needed someone that’s been in the shoes that most of his players are now. I went down, took the reserve team players which had Garnacho and Amad Diallo, I gave a knock-out-the-park session.<\/p>\n

“Good attacking session, the players really enjoyed it. You saw clear ideas of attacking football, chances created, scoring lots of goals. Erik loved that because it was exactly his philosophy.”<\/p>\n

While they were both reserve-team players at the time, Garnacho and Amad are now in first-team contention under Ten Hag. The former was on the scoresheet earlier this week as United beat Crystal Palace to book their spot in the Carabao Cup fourth round.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Amad, meanwhile, has not made a senior Red Devils appearance since the 2021\/22 season, but he is expected to play a part in the first team after he recovers from injury, having hit 14 goals on loan at Sunderland last campaign.<\/p>\n

McCarthy is a popular player on the United training ground – at least according to Marcus Rashford, who benefited directly from the 45-year-old’s guidance by scoring 30 times in all competitions during his first season on the coaching staff.<\/p>\n
