However, Van der Gaag is said to have a style that does not always inspire confidence from the players.
Per The Athletic, Van der Gaag and fellow assistant Steve McClaren do not always get along either.
Investors INEOS are hoping to get a coach to inspire players in the dressing room.
While Ten Hag is remaining in charge, he may be asked to replace Van der Gaag or bring in another coach to supplement him.
