Increasingly criticized at Manchester United, Erik ten Hag could well be on his way out this time. And the Red Devils already have a prime target to replace him.

Between 1986 and 2013, Sir Alex Ferguson led Manchester United with a master hand. Succeeding him would therefore be difficult for anyone trying to sit on the Red Devils’ bench. Which is indeed the case. David Moyes, Louis van Gaal, José Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer have all failed. But the Old Trafford residents had high hopes for Erik ten Hag. Successful on the bench of Ajax Amsterdam, the Dutchman was supposed to give new impetus to the English team. To help him, the Mancunians have spent crazy sums of money to recruit Antony, Casemiro and Matthijs de Ligt.

Despite disappointing results and rumors of departure, the British leaders have always united behind ETH. But the wind seems to be turning in recent days. The slap received against Tottenham (3-0 defeat) during the weekend seems to have left its mark.

But for his part, Ten Hag remained calm: “I am not thinking about leaving. We all made the decision this summer to stay together.”

Two coaches are appreciated

The Mancunians already have a name to replace him assures the Daily Star as well as the Daily Mail. Indeed, Simone Inzaghi is very popular with MU. His experience at the top level and the style of play he offers appeal to the English.

In the event of failure with Inzaghi, the English have checked the name of Gareth Southgate as a plan B. A simpler file for the Red Devils since he is free and on the market since the end of his adventure at the head of the England national team.
