Manchester United dey consider Thomas Tuchel as the new manager to replace Erik ten Hag, as pressure dey mount on the Dutch coach after a poor start to the season. The Red Devils currently dey 14th in the Premier League, and dis no be the first time questions dey asked about Ten Hag’s future at Old Trafford.
Tuchel, who has been out of job since he leave Bayern Munich at the end of last season, has been in talks with Manchester United’s co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe earlier this year. His availability and impressive managerial record, including winning the 2020/21 Champions League with Chelsea, make him a strong candidate for the job.
Other managers like Gareth Southgate, Graham Potter, and Massimiliano Allegri have also been linked to the position, but Tuchel seems to be the front-runner now. Manchester United’s hierarchy have scheduled a meeting in London to discuss the future of the club, and Tuchel’s immediate availability is seen as a major advantage.
Ten Hag, despite the pressure, insists he still has the support of the United board. However, the club’s poor performance and the ongoing discussions with other managerial candidates suggest that his time at Manchester United might be limited.
Tuchel’s managerial career has seen him manage teams like Augsburg II, Mainz, Borussia Dortmund, Paris Saint-Germain, and Chelsea. His experience and success in top-tier football make him a viable option for Manchester United as they seek to turn their season around.
