Man Utd 'have same concern' over three different candidates in ongoing manager hunt

Manchester United are rumoured to have identified Ajax boss Erik ten Hag as their ideal candidate for the vacant managerial role with concerns still lingering around three other names on the shortlist.

Paris Saint-Germain manager Mauricio Pochettino, Spain national team boss Luis Enrique and Sevilla chief Julen Lopetegui all also boast admirers with the United boardroom, but some are worried the aforementioned trio would rather plan their rebuild around transfers rather than a change in playing style. This is in stark contrast to Ten Hag, who is famed for his progressive style in Amsterdam.

The Dutchman was reportedly interviewed by United officials early last week and impressed with his plans for the club were he at the helm. Since his Ajax appointment, Ten Hag has won two Eredivisie titles alongside another two Dutch FA Cups.
