Man Utd boss’ replacement ‘asks’ for one signing as he ‘phones’ Barcelona star

Man Utd have reportedly lined up former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel as Erik ten Hag’s successor if they decide to sack the Dutchman, according to reports.

The Red Devils finished in a disappointing eighth position in the 2023/24 Premier League season with Ten Hag’s side coming in for a lot of criticism.

There were strong rumours that Ten Hag would get sacked no matter the outcome of their FA Cup final clash against arch-rivals Man City in the last match of the domestic calendar.



However, the unexpected victory at Wembley gave the Dutchman his second trophy in two years and has bought him time with new co-owners INEOS.

Man Utd looked at their options over the summer but they didn’t identify a target who they wanted to replace Ten Hag with, meaning the former Ajax boss has started this season in the Old Trafford dugout.

A poor start to the new campaign has already piled pressure on Ten Hag with Man Utd losing two of their first three Premier League matches to Brighton and Liverpool.
