The unstoppable Graham Potter, 49, will take over at Manchester United.

“If Manchester United sack manager Eric ten Haag, Graeme Potter will be the next in line to take over,” Sky Sports reported exclusively on Monday.

The 2023-2024 season has been a difficult one for United. After 31 league games, they are currently in sixth place (15 W, 4 D, 12 L, 49 points). A whopping 11 points separate them from fourth-place Tottenham Hotspur (60 points) and fifth-place Aston Villa (60 points).

The woeful finishing and defensive concentration problems have coincided with a lack of possession in the middle of the park. United’s goal differential this season is -1. They have scored 45 goals and conceded 46. They don’t win easily, 토토사이트 even against teams that are objectively rated below them in quality.

Despite this, United manager Van Gaal insists that he will not resign.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Van Gaal said: “I have no doubt (that I will stay at United next season). I’m just focused on the current project and the process,” he said.

He added: “I like being in this team very much and I am enjoying it. For me, managing United is a challenge. I’m enjoying it.”

However, it seems that the club is thinking about other options.

According to Sky Sports, “Graham Porter has rejected an offer from AFC Ajax. Porter was a priority target for Ajax. “Ajax have met with his representatives but he is not interested in the Ajax managerial job,” said Sky Sports, which first reported Ajax’s interest in Porter.

“If United were to sack Van Gaal this summer, 파워볼실시간 Porter would be on the shortlist to become the next United manager,” the source added.

“Porter has been on a break since being sacked by Chelsea in April last year. Ajax are still without a permanent manager after sacking Maurice Stein in October last year. Ajax have made efforts to sign Potters, but he is not interested.”
