If Zinedine Zidane takes over at Manchester United, he reportedly has one signing in mind the former Real Madrid manager is open to replacing Erik ten Hag. With just eight points from a possible 21 in their first seven games this season, Ten Hag’s Red Devils have had their worst start to a Premier League season ever.
Ten Hag is currently facing pressure from the board, the media, and the fans to improve Manchester United’s performance as they are currently languishing in 14th place in the Premier League with just five goals scored so far this season. Based on rumours that the Manchester United board may want to keep Ten Hag in place until closer to January, Ten Hag is anticipated to be in charge of the Red Devils’ first game back following the international break against Brentford.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe told Zinedine Zidane would consider Man Utd job on two conditions
Sir Jim Ratcliffe, the controlling co-owner of Manchester United, has received pressure to try again to sign Zinedine Zidane. Despite United’s dismal start to the season, Ratcliffe has chosen to retain the troubled Erik ten Hag as manager for the time being. Out of their first ten games across all competitions, Ten Hag’s team has only won three.
Although he made it through a meeting with United’s leadership last week, this has put the Dutchman under intense pressure to be let go. However, if their subpar performance persists, Ratcliffe will undoubtedly be looking for a substitute.
