Manchester United identifies ‘admire’ former Premier League manager as possible Ten Hag replacement at Old Trafford
Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has been put under the microscope on the back of the club’s worst-ever start of the Premier League era and transfer insider Dean Jones has now revealed a potential 57-year-old replacement that the Red Devils ‘admire’.
The Dutchman’s side have struggled to emulate their form from 2022/23 since the new campaign got underway, which has raised many eyebrows.
Manchester United are currently in purgatory, having lost six of their opening 10 games in all competitions as they sit 10th and rock bottom in the Premier League and their Champions League group, respectively.

A return to Europe’s top table was met with excitement from the Old Trafford faithful but with no wins from their two opening fixtures against Bayern Munich and Galatasaray, the feeling of delight is sharply fading.
As mentioned, due to their wailing start, Ten Hag has been subject to plenty of scrutiny, though The Athletic has reported that any manager would struggle given the current state of play at Manchester United.
Jones suggested that many of the previous candidates for the managerial position at Old Trafford are now managing elsewhere, though former Wolverhampton Wanderers chief, Julen Lopetegui is a manager they ‘admire’.
“The reputable reporter did also reiterate that there’s a greater chance of Ten Hag prolonging his stay with a new contract than there that he’ll be relieved of his managerial duties. He told GIVEMESPORT:
“There is a lot of talk around Erik ten Hag’s successor but what you have to look at is the fact that he was targeted ahead of a shortlist of bosses and that those top alternatives are now gone.
“Pochettino is at Chelsea, Luis Enrique is at PSG and perhaps the only manager you could look at now as someone we know they admire and that is currently out of work and wanting to be in the Premier League is Julen Lopetegui – but even then, we are talking about someone who was always an outsider to actually get the job. And when you look at the betting odds right now, he’s not even listed.
“Ten Hag has been at United 18 months and to be honest while I know the trend right now is to talk about his exit and who could replace him, we’re probably more likely to see him sign a new contract at some stage than actually leave.”
Of course, there is every chance that Manchester United’s previous interest in Lopetegui could re-surface amid the heat Ten Hag finds himself under.
At the back end of March 2022, the Spaniard – then in charge of Sevilla – had ruled himself out of contention for the job at Old Trafford, according to Manchester Evening News, which means it’s difficult to see a world where he looks at the current situation and decides it’s a job that he is willing to take on.
He was a fine custodian for Wolves but was eventually shown the door as the club’s owners told him it was ‘impossible to develop the project at Molineux’, a decision that Jones told GIVEMESPORT that Wolves could live to regret. Before his sacking, he had steered the club away from succumbing to relegation as – when he joined in November 2022 – Wolves were sat in the drop zone.
Lopetegui’s Sevilla credentials would make him a solid appointment with a rate of 1.85 points per match over his 170-game stewardship, though questions over his suitability to get Manchester United out of this pothole would rise to the surface. But then saying that, who else has the capability to do so?

Inside Kobbie Mainoo’s muscle transformation that Man Utd coaches believed he can reach the top
‘TRANSFORMER’: Inside Kobbie Mainoo’s muscle transformation that Man Utd coaches believed he can reach the top
The 18-year-old academy product has been slowly phased into the first-team by manager Erik ten Hag this season.
Mainoo has shown composure and skill well beyond his years, so much so that segments of the Old Trafford faithful have called on Ten Hag to regularly start him.
One United fan claimed “he’s going straight to the top” after seeing him turn in a solid display.
The teenager hasn’t looked out of place and already looks capable of handling the physical demands of his position.
His strength is the result of gruelling workouts and a nutritious diet, which have well and truly done away with his once “wiry” frame.
Mainoo’s transformation over the years has stunned many, including Cheadle and FC Gately’s academy chief Steve Vare – who has known him since the tender age of five.
He told the Manchester Evening News: “I went to the Youth Cup final. He’s almost unrecognisable.
“As he’s a big lad now and he was only tiny when he was at Cheadle and Gatley.
“My description of him at the time was wiry, he was really strong and very quick off the mark
“He was one of those that pushed the ball past a player and he would be electric, in terms of how he could spring forward.
“He’s a tall lad now and I thought he had a really great game against Nottingham Forest in the Youth Cup final.
“I sometimes wind my kids up by saying I coached him and they say ‘only for a short space of time’.
“Cheadle and Gatley obviously only played a small part in his development and as with anything in grassroots, it’s just a foundation for the youngsters.
“But everyone at Cheadle and Gatley are absolutely delighted for him and it’s great to see him doing so well.”
In their 3-0 victory over relegation-threatened Everton last weekend, Mainoo gave his best performance while wearing a United shirt.
Paul Scholes, a Red Devils great, is also persuaded by his recent performances that he deserves a longer stint with the team.
Speaking after United’s 3-3 draw with Galatasaray, he said: “I think Mainoo needs a run in the team.
“And from what we saw at Everton on Sunday, I think now it’s time to give him a chance.
“This back four, they need protecting. No one senses danger as much as this young lad.
“On Sunday, in a hostile atmosphere, he looked the real deal. I don’t see anyone else being able to protect the back four like he can do.”
Mainoo and his United team-mate’s will be back in action on Saturday night, travelling to St James’ Park to take on Newcastle.

Inside the luxurious mansion of Liverpool No. 1 goalkeeper Allison Becker and his lovely family – the mega mansion has with pool, cinema room and triple garage for the supercars
We discovered three of the coziest pads suitable for Alisson and his small family, since Liverpool’s newest addition is rumored to be searching for an opulent Merseyside house.
It is highly likely that the Brazilian goalkeeper, who recently signed a £67 million contract with Liverpool, will be evaluating residences nearby.
Undoubtedly, Alisson and his young family—which includes his 25-year-old wife Natalia Loewe and infant Helena—will be searching for a home.
With Alisson, 25, expected to earn a handsome salary each week, any of these opulent residences would be within easy reach for Liverpool’s newest goalkeeper.
Situated on a posh street in Merseyside, this contemporary Formby property has an eye-watering £2.4 million price tag.
Pictures taken inside the expansive five-bedroom home, which is listed with Karen Parks estate agents, show that it is a far-from-humble residence suited for footballing royalty.
Comfortable pads line Shireburn Road, which is tucked away down a quiet private street and looks out over Formby Golf Club.
This magnificent 5,600-square-foot property, which sits on a half-acre of private grounds, has five bedrooms, five bathrooms, and a hot tub.
The contemporary home has all the newest technology, including a Sonos music system, CCTV, and remote-controlled heating.
The apartment contains state-of-the-art appliances such as a wifi oven and a remote-controlled fireplace. The master bedroom features LED mood lighting.
In addition to having planning approval to construct a luxurious indoor recreation complex featuring a pool, jacuzzi, sauna, steam room, and gym, the property also has a home theater and surround sound system.
Located near “Millionaire’s Row,” one of Liverpool’s most affluent postcodes, this five-bedroom home is unquestionably WAG-worthy.
Colette Gunter is selling the expansive family house, which features a luxurious layout and contemporary interiors ideal for a young family.
The home features a big entrance hall with a gorgeous tier chandelier, as well as a wine store and movie theater.
If Alisson and his family decide to move to Formby, this beachfront house would be the ideal place for them to call home.
The property, which is concealed behind two guarded entrances, might be the ideal retreat for the new Liverpool player.
Although it is the most reasonably priced of the three dream homes at less than a million pounds, most prospective homeowners will still be unable to afford it.
Brazilian players at Liverpool FC, including Lucas Leiva, Fábio Aurélio, and Philippe Coutinho, have always had a soft spot for Woolton.
This opulent home might be the ideal option if Alisson and his family decide to settle down in the quiet South Liverpool neighborhood.
This five-bedroom home, which is listed with Jones and Chapman, has a movie room and a “swim spa” in the backyard.
With a private gym available for Alisson to use if he needs to fit in any additional training sessions, this luxurious L25 pad boasts a contemporary kitchen that opens up to the back of the house.
