Manchester United have been linked with Ipswich Town manager Kieran McKenna as a possible replacement for Erik ten Hag.
According to French journalist Santi Aouna, Manchester United are lining up potential replacements for Erik ten Hag, and Kieran McKenna has attracted their interest. The Red Devils have held preliminary talks with the 38-year-old as well, and it will be interesting to see if they proceed with a firm offer for him.
Kieran McKenna is highly rated in England, and he is expected to be the next big thing in the managerial circuit. It is no surprise that top clubs like Manchester United are keeping tabs on him. It will be interesting to see if the Red Devils are ready to part ways with Ten Hag in the coming weeks. The Red Devils have been linked with Gareth Southgate as well.
Manchester United could use a fresh start
It has been a disappointing season for Manchester United, and they are set to miss out on UEFA Champions League qualification. They have failed to win a major trophy as well. With that said, they will still play the FA Cup final against Manchester City, and it remains to be seen whether they can end the season on a high.
Meanwhile, Manchester United have been quite underwhelming with their performances, and they have failed to get the best out of their new signings. Ten Hag has been backed significantly in the transfer market, but most of that money seems to have been wasted. Manchester United need to rebuild their squad in the summer, and a fresh start could be ideal.
It will be interesting to see if McKenna is willing to take up the challenge and move to Old Trafford in the summer. He has not managed a club of Manchester United stature in the past and it remains to be seen whether he can cope with the pressure at Old Trafford.
Manchester United will be expected to win trophies every season, and matching up to that expectation is not easy. However, the 38-year-old certainly has the pedigree to develop into a top-class manager, and this could be an exciting opportunity for him. It remains to be seen how the situation develops over the next few weeks.
