Steve McClaren has admitted he'd be reluctant to return to 'day to day' management, but didn't rule out a coaching comeback, amid strong links with a post in Erik ten Hag's Manchester United backroom staff.
The former Sir Alex Ferguson assistant, who has also managed England, Newcastle, Derby and Middlesbrough among others, has been heavily touted for a return to Old Trafford this summer. As well as working under Ferguson at Old Trafford, he's a former colleague of Ten Hag who was his assistant at FC Twente.
Ten Hag has now been confirmed as United's next boss, with the 52-year-old's Ajax assistant Mitchell van der Gaag expected to join him in Manchester. McClaren could follow suit, having intimate knowledge of both United and Ten Hag's coaching methods.
