Neither Zidane nor Pochettino, the hidden coach that Manchester United want to bring in for $10M

Manchester United could potentially have a new manager next season despite the team winning the FA Cup under Erik Ten Hag. The club and the fans may have outgrown their patience with the Dutch manager, and now many names have been linked to become the next Manchester United manager. Top candidates like Zinedine Zidane and Mauricio Pochettino have been linked to the club for next season, but now another coach is a real candidate ahead of Zidane and Pochettino. Jamie Jackson reports that Manchester United have sounded out Roberto De Zerbi about becoming their new manager. Erik Ten Hag is likely to be sacked despite winning the FA Cup. The Italian manager has left Brighton and Hove Albion and could be offered around $10 million a year if he joins Manchester United this summer. De Zerbi has also been rumored to coach other clubs like Bayern Munich and AC Milan.

Before Manchester United starts thinking about bringing De Zerbi to the club, there will be an analysis of Ten Hag’s tenure at the club.
