While Ralf Rangnick has been appointed interim coach, Manchester United are still looking to find their successor next summer. Among the possible options, Italy national team selector Roberto Mancini.
Manchester United pense Mancini.
Manchester United leaders have already pulled out a tail. By betting on Ralf Rangnick, the English club have offered themselves a luxury intermediary to take the place of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer before securing the signature of a leading permanent manager for the coming season.
A failure from Italy could change everything
According to The Telegraph, the Mancunian management is eyeing Roberto Mancini. Champion of England with Manchester City in 2012, the Italian manager enjoys a very good rating following the success of the Nazionale in the last Euro. Despite this recent success, the technician passed through Inter finds himself under pressure following the failure of direct qualification for the 2022 World Cup.
Indeed, the Azzurra Squadra is still not guaranteed to go to Qatar. The European champion will have to get rid of North Macedonia, in the semi-finals of the play-offs, before leaving Portugal or Turkey thereafter. Suffice to say that the qualification is remote. And in the event of an unpleasant surprise, his head could fall despite the recent extension of his contract until June 2026.
Other avenues explored
If unsuccessful, Mancini would not call it a new adventure in England either, especially with the Red Devils’ willingness to start a new round. Especially since his mission would end in March, several months before the launch of the next season. Until then, Manchester United will dig other avenues for coaches already in place, the image Mauricio Pochettino (Paris SG), Brendan Rodgers (Leicester) or Erik ten Hag (Ajax).
