With attention focused on Zinedine Zidane’s next destination, it seems very unlikely that he will win a place at Manchester United.
Spain’s “Football Espana” said on the 2nd (Korea Standard Time), “Jidan is not interested in moving to the Premier League (PL) this summer,” adding, “He is not even thinking about taking the manager’s job at Manchester United. ” “There is a lot of interest in Zidane’s next move after three years of unemployment. There is a possibility that he will be assigned to Bayern Munich, where he has recently decided to let Thomas Tuchel go.”
In addition, France’s Foot Mercato said, “Gidan doesn’t want to be a Manchester United manager. The reason is because of his English. He is not fluent in English and doesn’t intend to study in the future. That’s why England is not Zidane’s next destination.”
Zidane is a legend of France. After retiring from active duty, he managed only at Real Madrid. He proved his leadership by winning two Spanish La Liga titles and three UEFA Champions League titles. Zidane, who is taking a break from Real in 2021, is highly likely to return to the team.
Manchester United was also mentioned as a candidate as he had a relationship with Munich, who would break up with Tuchel. Manchester United appointed Erik ten Hag ahead of the last season. Ten Hag showed excellent leadership early on in the Netherlands.
Therefore, he joined Manchester United ahead of last season. His first season showed positive results. He finished third in the league and qualified for the UCL. He also won the English Football League Cup, giving Manchester United its first trophy in seven years.
However, this season has been filled with disappointment. First, they were eliminated in last place in the UCL Group Stage, trailing Bayern Munich, Copenhagen, and Galatasaray. If they were in third place, they could have made it to the UEFA Europa League, but missed the opportunity by finishing last. They are sixth in the league and have been eliminated from the League Cup.
A full-fledged discussion on the next steps will take place after the end of the season. The Daily Star recently announced that “Coach Ten Hag will discuss his future after the end of the season. His contract will end in the summer of 2025. Sir Jim Ratcliffe will wait until the end of the season before making a decision on Ten Hag .A decision will be made.”
Meanwhile, Zidane has been mentioned as a potential replacement. “Coach Jim Ratcliffe will do everything he can to make United the champion of England and Europe again. One of the plans is to bring in Zidane. Claude Blanc was a big fan of Zidane and wanted to bring him back when he was the CEO of Paris Saint-Germain,” said the Ineos Group sports chief executive officer.먹튀검증
