Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho recently confessed that he will not end his career at Manchester and in a recent interview, the Portuguese said, ‘I am still a coach with the desire to do new things.’ He has also praised the ‘special’ project in Paris, which has given rise to a lot of speculation regarding his future at Old Trafford. Last season, the 54-year-old labelled his life in Manchester as a ‘disaster’ as he was finding it tough to live out of a hotel.
The Metro reported recently that Jose Mourinho has told the club officials that he has no intention of joining Paris Saint-Germain.
In another report, the Mirror reported that Paris Saint-Germain need to pay a whopping transfer fee of £30million to secure the services of the Portuguese manager in the summer.
With the long-term future of ‘The Special One’ in doubt, let’s take a look at three candidates who can replace him at Old Trafford.
Carlo Ancelotti
The Italian manager who has recently rejected the job offer to manage the Italian national team after their failure to secure a spot at next year’s FIFA World Cup can be the ideal man to replace Jose Mourinho.
His track record of winning the Champions League three times, the FA Cup and the Premier League once each makes him the most deserving candidate on this list.
The Italian recently suggested that he would consider a return to English football during an interview with RAI radio. So if Manchester United come calling next summer, the 58-year-old might find it hard to reject the offer.
Antonio Conte
The Italian has won the Premier League last season with Chelsea. But recently, his future has been thrown into doubt at Stamford Bridge.
With increasing tension between the Italian manager and the owner of Chelsea, Roman Abramovich, maybe a future move to Manchester is on the cards.
Another candidate with a proven track record, Antonio Conte is a tactical genius and can prove to be a worthy addition to the long succession of legends who have managed the Red Devils in the past.
Sean Dyche
Some fans might be turned off by the idea of Sean Dyche managing a club like Manchester United, but his recent contribution to Burnley’s excellent run of form this season has made him a worthy candidate for the role at Old Trafford.
The English manager knows the Premier League from inside-out and the next step in his career will be to manage a prestigious club in the Champions League.
