Manchester United reportedly turned down the chance to hire Graham Potter as their new manager due to his lack of Champions League experience.
The Red Devils were on the lookout for a new manager after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was sacked last November, with Ralf Rangnick taking the reigns on an Interim basis until the end of the season. But United decided to appoint Erik ten Hag as their new boss after a successful four-year spell at Ajax, where he won multiple Eredivisie titles.
It has now been revealed that Potter, however, was on the shortlist to become the next United manager. According to the Daily Mail, now-Chelsea boss Potter was in contention for the role but was rejected due to his inexperience in Europe, despite the fact Ten Hag had never worked in the Premier League before.
