Zinedine Zidane is currently without a job, but he has shown his pedigree at Real Madrid consistently. According to Santi Aouna, INEOS are dreaming of appointing him as the next Manchester United manager.
Erik ten Hag is under a lot of pressure after a disappointing season, and the Dutchman could be shown in the door at the end of the season. He has failed to get the best out of his players this season, and the Red Devils are struggling to secure Champions League qualification.
A club of their stature is expected to compete for major trophies, and the Dutch manager has not been able to deliver. It will not be surprising if Manchester United decide to replace him at the end of the season, and Zidane would be a quality replacement.
The 51-year-old won multiple Champions League trophies and league titles with Real Madrid, and he is a proven manager at the highest level. Appointing him could galvanise the squad and lift the spirits around the club.
Manchester United are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and they are expected to compete for major trophies every season. Zidane could help them get back to that level. Appointing a manager of his caliber would allow the Red Devils to attract the best players in the world as well. It will be interesting to see if the former Real Madrid manager is willing to take up a new challenge in the Premier League.
Zinedine Zidane would be a quality addition
There is no doubt that he is good enough for the English game, and he will look to make his mark in the Premier League if the opportunity presents itself. Zidane has been linked with other managerial jobs as well, and Manchester United must show their ambition clearly to attract a big managerial name like him.
Meanwhile, it will be interesting to see how Erik ten Hag reacts to the speculation surrounding his future at the club. The Dutchman will hope to silence his critics and turn things around at Old Trafford before the end of the season. It will be interesting to see if he can convince the club hierarchy with improved performances in the coming months.
