Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has clearly got a great sense of humour – as he couldn’t help but laugh at a fan holding up a shirt with Kylian Mbappe’s name on the back.
The flying Dutchman, 53, left Old Trafford a few hours after his side dumped Barcelona out of the Europa League on Thursday night.
They face Real Betis in a couple of weeks in the first leg of their last 16 tie at home.
United enter the clash unbeaten in a month.
Ten Hag stopped to speak to fans who were waiting for him outside the stadium on his way home – and fan footage caught on a mobile phone captured the funny moment in all of its glory.
The Dutch coach could be heard chuckling after spotting the fan holding the shirt in front of him for him to see it before he drove off.

One fan commented on Twitter: “It’s impossible to hate this man.”
Another wrote: “That point and laugh, am creasing.”
While a fellow Red Devil said: “He’s too funny man.”
“I’ve never loved a manager so much,” declared another fan.
As another added: “Words can’t describe how much I love this man.”
Will Mbappe join Man Utd?
Mbappe, 23, is considering his future at Paris Saint-Germain, according to reports.
He has long been linked with a potential move to the Premier League over the years.
And talkSPORT pundit Mark Goldbridge believes there is a very real possibility that he could join the club this summer – but only on one proviso.
“If Manchester United is bought by Qatar, there will be a very close relationship with the people who own PSG,” he said during a recent appearance on The United Stand. “Let’s leave it at that – we all know that, it’s common sense.
“Is there, therefore, a chance that Kylian Mbappe comes to Manchester United? Well, there’s a very big chance, because ultimately – Kylian Mbappe would want to have to want to come to Manchester United – but the minute that is the case, he will be a Man United player.
“He will probably end up at Real Madrid. He’s got a good relationship with Real Madrid, he nearly joined Real Madrid; PSG basically made him a sporting director to make him stay and gave him ridiculous money. And he probably will go to Real Madrid.
“But if he’s got any interest in coming to the Premier League, he’ll come to Manchester United. He’s not going to Man City, he’s not going to Arsenal, he’s not going to Liverpool.
“If Kylian Mbappe decides he wants to come to the Premier League, he will come to Manchester United – if we are Qatar-owned.”
