This season, United have fired Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on the coaching side and the Norwegian has been fired for poor performance. Now, after Lonnick took office, Manchester United fans originally had expectations for the father of high-level oppressive football, but now it seems that they have not met expectations, and after the 2-2 draw with Villa in the last round, Manchester United is getting farther and farther away from the top four.
According to the latest news from the Manchester Evening News, Manchester United hope to have Ronnick sacked before the end of the season to determine the new manager, and now Manchester United is targeting Pochettino, Tenhach and Rogers.
One of the reasons for the new manager being identified before the end of the season is that Lonnick is only a short-term plan. Another important reason is that the club does not want to delay the new manager's reinforcement work in the transfer window. Last summer, Spurs spent a long time looking for a replacement for Jose Mourinho, and Nuno did not settle for Spurs after taking office, and was replaced by Conte during the season.
According to people familiar with the matter, Manchester United believe that the appointment of the manager is "as soon as possible". Manchester United football director John Mottaf is considered the head of the process, with multiple sources confirming that incoming CEO Richard Arnold will not be too involved in football, but he must ask Glazer for approval of any management appointments.
Pochettino, 49, is still eager to coach Manchester United, who has explored the possibility of terminating Pochettino's contract with Paris Saint-Germain, which expires in 2023, but a person familiar with the matter said in November that the Qatari club had "taken a tough stance".
