As of this morning, Carlos Ancelotti has been appointed as the new coach of Manchester United following Eric Ten Hag’s dismissal from his position. Paper work has finally been completed Can’t believe this has finally happened 😳🙀
Manchester United’s leadership has reportedly verbally offered the managerial position to Carlo Ancelotti, expressing their readiness to hire him immediately. Speculation has been rife about Ancelotti’s interest in the role at Manchester United.
Amid Manchester United’s disappointing start to the season, accumulating only 12 points from eight Premier League matches and currently sitting in tenth place, Erik ten Hag, the current manager, is facing mounting criticism. Doubts have arisen regarding his ability to lead the team to success, despite his previous League Cup victory.
With crucial upcoming matches against Sheffield United, FC Copenhagen, and Manchester City, Manchester United’s performance in the coming week is pivotal. Ancelotti is being considered as a potential replacement for Ten Hag by the Manchester United administration, according to Spanish journalist Benjamin Lopez.
While Ancelotti has been linked with the Brazil managerial position in recent months, it’s anticipated that he may depart Real Madrid at the end of the current season. However, he has yet to confirm his decision, leaving open the possibility of a surprising return to the Premier League.
According to Lopez, Ancelotti has received an offer from Brazil but is inclined to stay at Madrid if offered a contract extension. Additionally, Manchester United has allegedly made a verbal offer to Ancelotti, as reported by El Chiringuito.
Despite his illustrious career, including 25 major trophies and four Champions League titles, Ancelotti remains highly regarded as one of the most accomplished managers in football history. His previous experience in the Premier League with Chelsea and Everton adds to his appeal.
While Ten Hag’s position at Manchester United is not immediately under threat, a defeat against Sheffield United could raise serious questions about his future. The potential connection with Ancelotti presents an intriguing development for Manchester United fans, especially if Ten Hag’s tenure comes to an end.
