In England in the scorching summer, Manchester United's manager election has become the focus of football around the world. According to the latest news, Ten Hag will continue to coach Manchester United, the list of alternative coaches has been announced, and surprisingly, Mourinho is not on the list!
Ten Hag's stay is not without reason. The reality for Manchester United is that there is a lack of suitable candidates in the market to replace him. After all, Ten Hag led United to sixth place in the league last season and despite an early Champions League exit, United still think he is the best candidate. In stark contrast, Jose Mourinho's time in charge, even with a runners-up finish, was seen as a failed season. Expectations for Manchester United have never been greater, with a rare final and an unattainable title leaving fans in despair.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is top of the list of potential coaches, but he is busy guiding England to the Euros. Other alternative coaches include Zerbi, Thomas Frank, O'Neal, Graham Potter and Thomas Tuchel. However, in the absence of a clear plan, United are inclined to retain current manager Erik ten Hag. Mourinho has been controversial but he has been clearly left out in the context of the transition period and the temporary change of manager.
For Mourinho, he is in no hurry to return for the time being, waiting for the right opportunity. Just as Maxima often exists, but Bole does not happen often, fans believe that Mourinho will eventually find his own giant club and shine again. Carlo Ancelotti even took over the reins of Everton at a low point, which also gave Mourinho more confidence and determination.
Overall, Manchester United's decision has sparked heated discussions and discussions among fans. Whether it's Ten Hag or the alternate coach, they will face a lot of pressure and challenges. It will be interesting to see what Manchester United will achieve in the new season.
