According to reputed journalist Fabrizio Romano, former Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel is a strong candidate to replace Erik ten Hag as Manchester United’s new manager.
The Red Devils have had a poor start to the Premier League campaign and they have accumulated just 8 points from their first 7 games. This is their worst-ever run in 35 years and ten Hag is expected to hold a meeting with the board in the coming days.
Speaking in his YouTube channel, Romanoreiterated that Tuchel had discussions with United’s hierarchy following the FA Cup final in May, but the German tactician decided to take a break instead after his stint with Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga.
United decided to stick with ten Hag as their head coach for the ongoing season, but Romanobelieves Tuchel remains a candidate ‘for sure’ if the Red Devils were to contemplate a change in the near future.
He said: “Guys, what I keep repeating to you on Thomas Tuchel is that Tuchel, you remember the exclusive story last summer, when Man United considered the position of Erik ten Hag, they were in the process to decide whether they wanted to confirm Ten Hag or fire him last summer after winning the FA Cup.
