Leaving The England National Team, Southgate Replaces Erik Ten Hag At MU
JAKARTA - England's national team manager Gareth Southgate is a strong candidate to replace Erik ten Hag in charge of Manchester United. Southgate has the support of players who have strong influence in the dressing room. Only, Mu must be able to seduce Southgate to leave the national team.
Southgate occupies a favorite candidate to handle MU. In fact, he has the support of players rather than Thomas Tuchel who will leave Bayern Munich at the end of this season.
Moreover, he has good relations with senior MU players who enter the national team. Tuchel himself is interested in dealing with MU and it is rumored that he has been in contact with club officials.
But the figure of Southgate later emerged as a candidate for Manchester United manager. Southgate suddenly became a strong candidate because he had a close relationship and had worked together with Dan Ashworth who would become MU's Director of Sports. Likewise with Sir Dave Brailsford who now serves as Director of Sports INEOS.
INEOS is a company owned by British billionaire Sir Jim Radcliffe. Through INEOS, Ratelege can get a small part of MU's shares, which is 25%.
However, the richest man in Great Britain has the authority to organize the MU squad, including determining the fate of Ten Hag.
Ten Hag himself is most likely not to be defended by Manchester United. Even though they brought the Red Devils to win the FA Cup and qualify for the Champions League, Ten Hag will still be fired.
However, this scenario can be carried out if MU manages to seduce Southgate and place his position as manager of the England national team.
The reason is, Southgate's contract in the national team only ended in December 2024. The FA is still seeing how the Three Lions will achieve at Euro 2024.
If his achievements are not disappointing or minimal like the Euro 2020 edition when he reaches the final, then his contract can be extended.
This is why Ratcliffe asks for an answer as soon as he can from Southgate who has been in charge of the national team for eight years. Ratcliffe hopes to get confirmation from the former Middlesbrough manager and player before Euro 2024.
If he accepts Manchester United's offer, Southgate will set aside candidates like Roberto De Zerbi who are currently handling Brighton and Hove Albion and Brentford manager Thomas Frank. In addition, Graham Potter, who failed completely while coaching Chelsea, joined the MU and Tuchel radars.
Ten Hag is actually a potential person who brings MU back to the top. Moreover, he only got two years to build a team.
The problem is that Ten Hag is in charge of a club that previously achieved success with legend Sir Alex Ferguson. Ferguson's replacements, from David Moyes to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, failed to meet the expectations.
Only Jose Mourinho was able to bring MU to the FA Cup, Commnity Shield to the Europa League trophy. However, after the Feguson era, MU no longer won the English Premier League and Champions League.
This makes Ten Hag two years too late for MU. The club is also ready to do another experiment with Southgate.
