JAKARTA - The management of Manchester United seems to be regretting the hunt for the coach of Ajax Amsterdam, Erik ten Hag. The reason, the man from the Netherlands was reportedly starting to turn away.
The Manchester United manager's favorite candidate is now reportedly being eyed by a German club, RB Leipzig. Well, reportedly, the movement of RB Leipzig is more agile than Manchester United.
There was an assumption that RB Leipzig had succeeded in hijacking the Ten Hag from the pursuit of Manchester United. The process of moving is just a matter of time.
However, this news was denied by the head of Sport1 reporter, Patrick Berger. He said RB Leipzig was satisfied with Domenico Tedesco's work and had no plans to change coaches.
Berger also stated that Erik ten Hag was a long-time target from RB Leipzig. He said, Ten Hag remained the favorite candidate to become United coach.
"RB Leipzig hijacked potential Man United candidate Erik te Hag? It doesn't make sense. The Dutchman was a candidate for RP Leipzig in the past," Berger tweeted on his Twitter account.
"Leipzig is very satisfied with Domenico Tedesco. Ten Hag is still the top candidate to take over MUFC," he continued.
So far, there has been no official statement from either RB Leipzig, Manchester United or Erik Ten Hag regarding this matter. The three parties are still silent allowing speculation to develop in the public.
Of course, Manchester United is looking for a new manager to fill the position of Ralf Rangnick whose contract expires at the end of the season. The candidates are Erik ten Hag, Mauricio Pochettino, Luis Enrique and including Thomas Tuchel.
