By db-admin
DBasia.news – Manchester United missed the opportunity to bring in Antonio Conte to replace Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. However, the Red Devils obtained another name.
Manchester United’s 3-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur has made Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s position safe for a while. In fact, the Red Devils have established communication with Antonio Conte.
In the end, Manchester United was surpassed by Tottenham. With relatively fast negotiations, Conte agreed to a contract until 2023. The Lilywhites also has the option of extending for one season.
The next question is who will be the future manager of Manchester United if Solskjaer’s inconsistency returns? One name that is considered suitable is Zinedine Zidane.
Zidane is known as a coach who is reliable in reducing the ego of star players. The French football legend proved it at Real Madrid.
However, the cost of appointing Zidane as skipper is believed to be pricey. Moreover, Zidane is known as one of the coaches who likes to bring in star players.
However, The Sun reports Manchester United have an alternative. This time the cost of bringing in the tactician is believed to be cheaper.
The figure in question is Erik ten Hag from Ajax Amsterdam. Ten Hag, who has been in charge of Ajax for four years, presented two league titles, two Dutch League Cup titles, and reached the semifinals of the Champions League.
Ten Hag is also known as a coach who is good at developing young players. Donny van de Beek, Hakim Ziyech (Chelsea), Frenkie de Jong (Barcelona), Kasper Dolberg (Nice), Quincy Promes (Spartak Moscow) and Matthijs de Ligt (Juventus) are a line of players who have developed rapidly under the direction of Ten Hag.
