Ten Hag’s job hanging but the Red Devils have snubbed this man

After the 3-0 stumping on their home turf by Liverpool, the Red Devils of Manchester United are starting to think past current manager, Erik ten Hag.

With Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United tenure hanging by a thread after a disastrous start to the season with 1 win and 2 defeats, the Red Devils are reportedly lining up a high-profile replacement. The back-to-back defeats against Brighton and Liverpool has left United floundering in 14th place, hence unwanted whispers of a managerial change growing louder.

While Ten Hag was given a lifeline this summer, along with a reshuffled coaching staff that includes club legend Ruud van Nistelrooy, the pressure is mounting fast. But here’s the twist: if things don’t turn around soon, United’s top brass have a contingency plan in place—enter Thomas Tuchel.

The former Chelsea and PSG boss, known for his tactical brilliance and ability to handle big egos, is seen as the ideal candidate to step in if Ten Hag fails to steady the ship. Could Tuchel be the answer to United’s woes, or will Van Nistelrooy leapfrog his mentor and take the reins himself? One thing is certain—Old Trafford could be in for a seismic shake-up if results don’t improve quickly.

This report however goes contrary to Tuesday’s statement by Red Devils chiefs, who promised Erik ten Hag will remain in charge despite the false start to the current premier league season.
