Manchester United seem to be accelerating their search for their next permanent manager. MEN Sport understands that Erik ten Hag has emerged as the favourite ahead of Mauricio Pochettino in the club's opinion.
And now it's also understood that the club have interviewed the Dutchman for the role and are stepping up their efforts in the search for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's permanent successor over the two-week international break. However, United want to make certain that they make the right appointment, so will be interviewing a number of other candidates as well.
A lot of key points will have been discussed during the interview, including the budget that Ten Hag will have available to him for transfers, how he will work with the club's current crop of players and also the direction he will be able to take the club in the future. But what about his backroom staff?
