Erik ten Hag’s continuation as manager of a Manchester United that continues to show inconsistency in the Premier League is far from guaranteed.
Given the situation, several profiles are being considered by the club’s management for the potential replacement of the Dutchman this summer.
Manchester United is having a rather modest season. Although they will go head-to-head with Manchester City in the vibrant derby for the FA Cup trophy, the reality in the Premier League is quite harsh. Thus, changes are looming within one of the giants of British football.
Consequently, manager Erik ten Hag faces a unique crossroads at Old Trafford, and his position could be at risk for the coming season.
Looking ahead to the next summer transfer period, the English club’s leadership is evaluating several candidates to replace the former Ajax Amsterdam manager.
Manchester United is considering two candidates
According to information from Sportitalia, one of the favorites to take over at United is a coach who will be available this summer.
This is Thomas Tuchel, who will be departing a Bayern Munich that is striving to present its best version against Real Madrid in the Champions League semi finals.
In addition to the former Borussia Dortmund, PSG, and Chelsea manager, the Red Devils are also keeping an eye on Thiago Motta.
He is a candidate who might also lead his Bologna to the 2024-2025 Champions League. Thus, both the Bologna coach and Tuchel are the leading candidates to replace Ten Hag at United.
