Erik Ten Hag will not have survived Manchester United’s umpteenth poor performance. The defeat conceded to West Ham was too much for the Batavian technician. This Monday, he was shown the exit door by the Red Devils board.
So who will succeed him? This is the big question being put forward in the North West of England. For the moment, Ruud Van Nistelrooy, the club legend, is responsible for acting as interim manager. But it is not at all certain that he will last forever in this role.
Manchester United have established their shortlist
According to English journalist Sam C, Manchester United are preparing to begin negotiations with German coach Julian Nagelsmann. The latter is however currently in charge of the selection of his country. In the past, he had already been mentioned briefly by Chelsea and Tottenham. Will he finally join the Premier League?
In addition to Nagelsmann, Ruben Amorim, the excellent coach of Sporting, is also cited as a probable future coach of the Mancunian team. Thomas Frank, Graham Potter or Gareth Southgate are also likely to land at MU. Finally, it would not be surprising to see United renew contact with Xavi, their former target.
