Manchester United is reportedly not considering Thomas Tuchel or Mauricio Pochettino as potential replacements if manager Erik ten Hag departs, ESPN revealed Monday. 🔍 The Red Devils’ leadership appears to be eyeing a different direction amid uncertainty around the Dutch coach’s future.
Ten Hag, who joined in 2022, still has one year left on his contract. Under his leadership, the club secured 66 wins in 114 matches across competitions. Highlights include a third-place Premier League finish in 2022-23 and a thrilling 2-1 FA Cup victory over rivals Manchester City last May 🏆—though the team slumped to eighth place in the league this season.
Tuchel and Pochettino, both currently without clubs after leaving Bayern Munich and Chelsea, respectively, are not on United’s radar. Bayern’s failure to win a 12th straight Bundesliga title and Chelsea’s sixth-place Premier League finish may have dimmed their appeal. 💥
So, who will step in if Ten Hag exits? The search continues… ⏳
