Erik ten Hag is, in those moments, the principle candidate to take over as Man Utd boss whilst Ralf Rangnick leaves. But the reason isn't always only his potential as a train, however also how reasonably-priced it would be to get him. Man Utd could just have to pay Ajax two million euros whereas Mauricio Pochettino at PSG fees 20 million.
The 18 million euro difference is qite a massive one and Man Utd are privy to that. They might not have many issues paying it if the Argentine were their favored option, but that is not the case. The Dutchman is their first preference and he is also 18 million euros cheaper.
If Man Utd affirm thuis buyout clause, it might now not be the first time this takes place in modern-day football. This occurred in Germany with Julian Nagelsmann whilst he left RB Leipzig to replace Hansi Flick at Bayern Munich last summer. Now, Flick is the Germany coach and his facet can be on the Qatar World Cup in a group which includes Spain.
Back on Man Utd, it's far worth remembering that, while Ralf Rangnick signed as the new manager, he did so with a agreement which is exclusive to the standard ones. He joined the membership as supervisor, but then he might take on an advisory function within the summer time.
