Finally we are having an Elite coach sin
Sir Jim Ratcliffe, a part-owner of Manchester United, is reportedly encountering obstacles in his bid to persuade Zinedine Zidane to replace Erik ten Hag as the club’s manager. Ratcliffe has identified Zidane as the prime candidate to lead the team at Old Trafford amid Ten Hag’s ongoing challenges with the squad.
The Daily Mirror reports that Ratcliffe dreams of attracting Zidane to Manchester United, believing the French football icon could rejuvenate the club’s fortunes. Zidane, who has not held a managerial position since departing from Real Madrid in 2021, has always aspired to manage the French national team. However, with Didier Deschamps still at the helm of France, Zidane’s desired role remains out of reach.
Ratcliffe has made several attempts to sway Zidane into considering Manchester United as his next career move. Yet, Zidane, a former star for Real Madrid, Juventus, and the French national team, remains hesitant. He has previously expressed concerns about coaching in England, particularly due to the language barrier. In an interview with L’Equipe, Zidane remarked, “Would I want to go to Manchester United? I understand English, but I’m not completely fluent in it. I know some coaches go to clubs without speaking the language, but I work differently. Many factors come into play to win; it’s about the global context. I know what I need to win.”
Meanwhile, Erik ten Hag is under significant scrutiny following a disappointing start to the Premier League season. United has secured only three points from their first three matches, including a heavy 3-0 loss to Liverpool at home. This poor performance has intensified rumors that Ten Hag’s tenure could soon come to an end, with bookmakers predicting he may be the next Premier League manager to be dismissed.
The defeat against Liverpool saw Ten Hag’s odds of being sacked dramatically increase, making him the leading candidate among Premier League managers to be relieved of his duties. Despite speculation that he would be dismissed after an underwhelming 2023-24 season—where Manchester United finished eighth in the Premier League and exited the Champions League in the group stage—the club surprisingly retained him.
Manchester United conducted an internal review of Ten Hag’s role and considered other potential managers but ultimately chose to keep him for the time being. However, this decision now appears to be merely a temporary measure. Many experts and betting agencies suggest that Ten Hag’s dismissal is imminent, with his position appearing increasingly unstable.
Several renowned managers are being mentioned as possible replacements, including former England manager Gareth Southgate and ex-Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel. Despite Ratcliffe’s efforts, Zidane seems unlikely to take up the role, underscoring the difficulty Manchester United faces in finding a suitable successor to Ten Hag.
