The Dutch defender guided the Reds to the Champions League last season, with Liverpool also set to secure their first Premier League title this time out.
United, meanwhile, are battling to finish in the top four this season.
After wins against Chelsea and Watford last week, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men are now fifth in the table, just three points behind the Blues.
However, Manchester City’s Champions League ban could see United secure a place in next season’s competition.
If City’s ban is upheld after their appeal, whoever finishes fifth in the Premier League will secure Champions League football for next season.
