Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has revealed that Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel would be his top choice to take over as manager at Old Trafford next season, saying that his former club should not be put off taking advantage of the Blues' current situation.
Ralf Rangnick was appointed as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's successor until the end of the season, with the German then set to move into a consultancy role. The hunt is on for the next permanent manager at the club then with Paris Saint-Germain's Mauricio Pochettino and Ajax's Erik Ten-Hag both strongly linked.
But with the future of Chelsea currently uncertain as Roman Abramovich deliberates over who should succeed him as owner of the club, Tuchel's situation has also been thrown into doubt. While the German has repeatedly reaffirmed his commitment to the club, he continues to be drawn into speculation.
