The Dutchman is currently preparing for a pivotal week for the Red Devils, with crucial cup encounters against Barcelona in the UEFA Europa League and Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup final on the horizon.
It seems that one of the ways in which Ten Hag has chosen to prepare for those games is by consulting United's most successful manager ever, Ferguson, during a recent dinner.
Prior to their European tie against the LaLiga table-toppers on Thursday night, Ten Hag was happy to share what he and the Scotsman discussed.
"It's massive," the 52-year-old told members of the media in a press conference, as per The Independent.
"I always enjoy speaking with people who have a lot of knowledge, a lot of experience. He wants to share it, he wants to help and support.
"He feels Manchester United is his club and he feels so committed. He wants us to do well. It was a great night and I look forward to the next night with him."
The 81-year-old has enjoyed some famous nights against the Catalan giants and remains the last Red Devils boss to triumph over the Spanish outfit.
