Michael Owen believes that Jurgen Klopp could transform Manchester United in “two or three years” if the Liverpool boss was appointed at Old Trafford.
United have confirmed that Ajax manager Erik ten Hag will take over from temporary boss Ralf Rangnick this summer. The Dutch coach has signed a three-year deal with Liverpool’s fierce rivals, who currently sit 6th in the table following their 4-0 defeat to the Reds on Tuesday night.
However, despite their current struggles, former Liverpool striker Owen believes a world-class manager would breathe new life into the United squad. The 42-year-old used Jurgen Klopp’s arrival at Anfield as an example of the seismic effect a coach can have on a club’s fortunes - but Owen is unsure whether Ten Hag is the right man for the job.
