Transfer Rumours: Manchester United Eye Thomas Tuchel, Carlo Ancelotti, and Mauricio Pochettino for Manager Role

Club Targets High-Profile International Coaches as Long-Term Successor to Ruben Amorim

Manchester United have identified a trio of elite international managers as they search for a permanent successor to the sacked Ruben Amorim, with England’s Thomas Tuchel, Brazil’s Carlo Ancelotti, and the USA’s Mauricio Pochettino all under consideration, according to The Mirror.

The club is reportedly building a shortlist for a summer appointment, with the three high-profile coaches emerging as the leading candidates to take over the long-term project at Old Trafford.

The report indicates that United’s pursuit of Tuchel could hinge on England’s performance at next year’s FIFA World Cup, while Ancelotti—currently in charge of Brazil—is also being monitored despite ongoing talks to extend his contract with the Seleção.

Darren Fletcher remains in temporary charge as the club navigates the remainder of the season. United’s hierarchy is said to be planning carefully for a summer reset, aiming to appoint a manager with the stature and experience to revive the club’s fortunes after a turbulent period under Amorim.

With all three candidates currently committed to national team projects, United’s search may require patience, but the ambitious shortlist signals their intent to secure a proven winner for one of football’s most challenging roles.
