He will instead be one of the coaches on the staff of United manager Erik ten Hag.
He told Soccer News about the move: "The feeling I have is difficult to describe, but this is of course a great opportunity for me. Working in the biggest league in the world, at one of the biggest clubs in the world.
“It is also a wonderful reward for me. The fact that I can go to the top of the world from Go Ahead Eagles is unique.
“Of course I am grateful to Erik for this opportunity, but it is not about us knowing each other well. We just have to do good work.
“Erik has a role in mind for me, we discussed that. As in any staff, all tasks are divided among the assistants.”
