It is already taken for granted that Manchester United will part ways with Erik ten Hag at the end of the season. Meanwhile, it is reported that the club’s owner, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, has already contacted a replacement: the German, Thomas Tuchel.
“The decision still stands. That’s why I don’t need to change it now. It was a collective decision. That’s why we don’t need to discuss it.”
Bayern Munich’s sporting director Max Eberl made it clear that neither the first team coach, the German Thomas Tuchel, nor the club have changed their decision to part ways at the end of the season.
Despite the improvements that the Bavarian team has made in recent weeks and the realization that finding a reliable replacement will not be easy, which had sparked rumors about the coach’s possible continuation, the parties have not altered their stances.
Replacement for Ten Hag?
In fact, in Germany, there is already speculation about the possibility of the German returning to the Premier League. There, a major club, Manchester United, has placed him on the list of coaches with the potential to fill Erik ten Hag’s position.
The Dutchman has a contract until June 2025, but some already assume that, given the Red Devils’ inconsistent performance, he will be dismissed at the end of the season. “They have already made a decision. He will be dismissed even if he wins the FA Cup,” former player Alan Shearer said, according to Fichajes.
According to Kicker, the English entity’s main shareholder, the magnate Sir Jim Ratcliffe, is a great admirer of Tuchel and would have even contacted him from Krumbach to ask him to take over the team starting next summer. A matter to follow.
