Antonio Conte remains the hot favourite to replace Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in the Manchester United hotseat – and now an eyecatching report has raised the stakes about the Italian stepping in at Old Trafford.
The Red Devils fell to a woeful loss at the King Power Stadium in a game they ‘deserved to lose’, according to Paul Pogba. United have now won just two of their last seven games to bundle the pressure on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer Solskjaer. And with Liverpool, Tottenham and Manchester City to come in their next three Premier League outings, the heat may be about to further rise on the under-fire United boss.
As such, Wednesday’s Paper Talk presented a theory within United’s squad that Solskjaer could be gone before the month is out.
And it’s little surprise to see the big names queuing up with Zinedine Zidane and Conte strongly linked.
