Ten Hag&#8217;s men were slightly more compact and better but it ultimately proved insufficient and they couldn&#8217;t get a share of the points.<\/p>\n<p>Club co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe was present at Old Trafford alongside some of his closest associates including Sir Dave Brailsford. They would have undoubtedly taken note of the performance and result, possibly pushing them more towards making a change in the dugout.<\/p>\n<p>United have been linked to a number of top coaches including Gareth Southgate, Thomas Tuchel, Graham Potter, Roberto De Zerbi and Flick.<\/p>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/thepeoplesperson.com\/2024\/05\/06\/manchester-united-talk-to-hansi-flicks-representatives-about-him-replacing-erik-ten-hag-279813\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recent report<\/a> covered by The Peoples Person relayed that Ten Hag&#8217;s side were one of a number of top Premier League clubs that made enquiries to Flick&#8217;s camp to explore the possibility of securing his services.<\/p>\n<p>He has been out of work since being relieved of his duties by the German national team in September.<\/p>\n<p>However, during his time in the Bundesliga with Bayern, Flick enjoyed great success. He guided the Bavarian outfit to a treble in the 2020 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>It was stated that Flick is eager to manage in the Premier League and in a fresh update issued by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.givemesport.com\/manchester-united-latest-news-gareth-southgate-top-ineos-list-job-old-trafford\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GIVEMESPORT<\/a>, the 59-year-old has his heart set on a move to United.<\/p>\n<p>The outlet states, &#8220;GMS sources understand that Hansi Flick wants to be considered for the Manchester United job if it becomes available, despite opening talks over returning to Bayern Munich, and he is trying to force his way into the conversation due to being attracted to the possibility of managing in the Premier League for the first time in his career.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He is surveying his options before embarking on a fresh challenge and returning to the dugout in the coming weeks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Thomas Tuchel is also attempting to make sure he is in the frame to replace ten Hag, but there are concerns over his character as there are fears that he can come across as too combative, which would go against him when Manchester United make a decision over their future plans.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The report adds that Flick is perceived as a &#8220;safer bet&#8221; in comparison to the more abrasive Tuchel, who is believed to have a reputation for falling out with the top brass wherever he goes.<\/p>\n<p>Flick is being viewed as an &#8220;in-betweener version&#8221; of Tuchel and Southgate.<br \/>\n<HR><br \/>\n<em>Want to be the first to hear breaking Man United news?
