Reports from England suggest that some figures within Manchester United are eyeing Massimiliano Allegri as a potential replacement for current manager Erik ten Hag. This speculation comes after United suffered their third defeat in six Premier League matches this season, a heavy 3-0 loss at home.
According to reports from CaughtOffside (via Calciomercato), Allegri, who has been without a club since leaving Juventus at the end of last season, is among the options being considered by Manchester United’s management. However, it’s understood that no concrete negotiations have taken place at this stage.
Ten Hag, the 54-year-old Dutch manager and former defender, has been at the helm of Manchester United since 2022. His tenure has seen 67 victories, 18 draws, and 33 defeats across 118 official matches. During this time, he has secured two titles: the English League Cup in 2022-23 and the FA Cup in 2023-24.
Prior to his appointment at Manchester United, Ten Hag had a successful spell with Ajax from 2018 to 2022, where he clinched three Dutch league titles, two Dutch Cups, and two Dutch Super Cups.
The recent poor run of form has apparently led to discussions about Ten Hag’s future at Old Trafford, with Allegri’s name now emerging as a potential successor. As the situation develops, it remains to be seen whether Manchester United will make a managerial change or continue to back Ten Hag through this challenging period.
