“It’s a good news they have gone back to him. He knows how to revive teams. I recommend him for te Glazers last but he decline the offer. But the New owners are going back to get him with a better offer to take United Job”-Sir Alex Ferguson reveals that Man Utd have currently ‘re-open’ talks with world-class manager who he recommended for the club to sign to replace Erik ten Hag and the New Manager.

Manchester United are reportedly preparing to reopen negotiations with a previous managerial candidate should they decide to part ways with Erik ten Hag, after being turned down by another potential option.

Ten Hag’s tenure at United is under increased scrutiny following their recent 3-0 home defeat to Tottenham. Adding to the pressure, United threw away a two-goal lead against Porto in the Europa League, with Harry Maguire’s late goal salvaging a 3-3 draw. These disappointing results have heightened concerns about Ten Hag’s position.

According to The Athletic, the club is currently adopting a “long-term perspective” on Ten Hag’s future. This suggests that even if United lose their upcoming match against Aston Villa, the Dutch coach may not immediately be dismissed. However, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, United’s minority co-owner, along with his INEOS partners, already held discussions with several managerial candidates over the summer. While they chose to stick with Ten Hag after the club’s FA Cup triumph, the recent poor form may prompt the club to revisit those conversations.

One of the high-profile names United reached out to last summer was Thomas Tuchel, the former Chelsea and Bayern Munich boss. Tuchel reportedly declined the offer due to concerns about Manchester United’s internal power dynamics. Now, according to i, Tuchel’s name is once again on the radar, and United could reopen talks with him if they choose to move on from Ten Hag. Tuchel is currently not managing any club, which could make him a viable option for the role.

Ratcliffe is said to have personal preferences for either Graham Potter, formerly of Brighton and Chelsea, or England’s national team coach, Gareth Southgate. However, any final decision on a managerial change would require input from Manchester United’s broader leadership team. Meanwhile, Italian journalist Tancredi Palmeri has reported that Manchester United recently approached Simone Inzaghi, the current Inter Milan coach. However, Inzaghi is understood to have declined the opportunity, preferring to remain with Inter.

Brentford’s manager, Thomas Frank, is another name that has surfaced. Frank was reportedly in talks with United before last season’s FA Cup final, where United secured a surprise win against Manchester City. This makes him another potential candidate should a managerial change occur.

Despite all the names linked to the job, the current betting favorite to succeed Ten Hag is assistant coach Ruud van Nistelrooy. A former United striker, van Nistelrooy joined the coaching staff over the summer after an impressive season managing PSV Eindhoven, where he led the club to two trophies in a single campaign.

While United is clearly considering several options, the club seems to be weighing its decision carefully, given the importance of stabilizing the team and returning to winning ways.
