It doesn’t matter if Real Madrid just achieved qualification for the Champions League quarter-finals and are still on top of the La Liga table. The 4-0 loss to Barcelona at the Santiago Bernabeu had a big reaction from local media, who now wonder if Carlo Ancelotti should remain in charge of the team.
That’s why Fichajes features a list of three managers who should be in the club’s list this summer. And for one of them, the Galacticos would need to compete with Manchester United.
That’s Erik Ten Hag, who’s been pointed out as one of the main options the Red Devils have.
Fichajes says the Dutchman has indeed been strongly linked to Manchester United, but adds that ‘there’s nothing confirmed’ yet, with the Old Trafford side also looking for alternatives.
The report highlights Ten Hag’s work with Ajax and claims he could be a ‘very good option’ for Real Madrid in case they do choose to replace Ancelotti.
So if Manchester United and Ralf Rangnick do decide to make the Dutch boss their priority this summer, there’s a chance a battle with the La Liga giants is on the way.
