Last week, Manchester United has officially sacked Mourinho and pointed Solskjaer as the team’s new manager. In the recent two games after Solskjaer’s arrival, Manchester United won both of them and the Red Devils seems to be back on the right track. However, the club still wants to sign a new manager who can lead the team in a long-term.
It is reported that Pochettino is still Manchester United’s number one candidate. This season, Pochettino has led Tottenham perform well both in the Premier League and Champions League and he knows Premier League competition well, so he will be an ideal manager for the Red Devils.
Although Pochettino is their first choice, Manchester United will not only pay attention to him. According to British media, Allegri has also become a candidate. Currently, Allegri is the manager of Serie A giant Juventus. He has led Juventus win the Seria A champions for four consecutive times and they has once been to the Champions League final as well. This year, he is nominated for the best manager of 2018 as well.
For coaching in the Premier League, Allegri himself has an open attitude. According to some sources close to him, before Mourinho was fired, Allegri thought Manchester United was the next approriate destination. This summer, Allegri was interested in coaching Arsenal, but because Arsenal lacked transfer funds, in the end, Allegri still chose to stay in Turin.
Juventus sports director Paratic is also one of Manchester United’s targets, and agents are ready to recommend these two to Manchester United together.
