On April 23, Beijing time, the Premier League will usher in the 34th round of matches, tonight at 19:30, Arsenal home against Manchester United. Before the game, Manchester United ushered in a major change, starting this summer's reconstruction mode ahead of schedule, confirming that 52-year-old Dutch coach Tenhag will start coaching the team this summer, and the current Manchester United manager Lonnick will leave after the end of the season. The trigger for this change is the poor state of Manchester United, With Ronnick coaching Manchester United with a very low winning percentage of just 45.8 per cent, setting a new 41-year low for Manchester United.
In the last round, Longnick led United to a 4-0 defeat to Liverpool, officially triggering a change of manager. Since Lonnick himself signed a short-term contract with Manchester United, leaving the post was not a surprise to him. After the crushing defeat to Liverpool, Lonnick made a statement about the future of Manchester United, first bluntly saying after the loss that Manchester United has been behind Liverpool for more than 6 years and it is not easy to catch up; then hinting that the team must rebuild, saying that it will be normal for 6 to 10 new signings to join Manchester United this summer.
In this round against Arsenal, Lonnick has already announced more important news at the pre-match fan Q&A meeting, saying that Pogba confirmed that he could not play against Arsenal because Pogba was injured in the opening 10 minutes of the previous game. Lonnick believes Pogba may not be able to play in the last four Premier League games of the season and that he will not renew his contract with Manchester United.
According to the contractual relationship, the 29-year-old Pogba's contract with Manchester United expires in June 2022, and Lonnick's words mean that the United thorn will reimburse the season and leave the team freely this summer. Pogba joined Manchester United in August 2016 for a transfer fee of 105 million euros, and began to become a thorn in manchester United during the Mourinho era, causing headaches for successive managers and extremely unstable conditions, so far playing 226 games for Manchester United, scoring 39 goals and assisting 51 times, and his value has shrunk to 55 million euros. It has to be said that Manchester United have lost a lot in Pogba.
Combined with other players whose contracts are about to expire, Pogba leads the top 5 stars to leave this summer at 0 yuan, and the other four are Mata, Lingard, Nemanja Matic and Cavani, all of whom will move away from Manchester United on the same free move as Pogba.
According to the well-known media "Times", Tenghag will receive a transfer budget of more than 120 million pounds this summer, and at the same time, he can get more transfer budgets by selling some players, which is expected to lead Manchester United to complete a complete reconstruction. In this way, Ronaldo's situation has become very passive, on the one hand, the team is rebuilt, confirming that there is no hope of a short-term rise; on the other hand, Manchester United is likely to be unable to qualify for the Champions League and Europa League in the new season. Therefore, in the case of a contract, where Ronaldo will go this summer will be a dilemma.
