According to Sky Sports, Manchester United is reportedly eyeing Chelsea’s underwhelming former manager, Graham Potter, as a potential replacement for Erik ten Hag. Sources indicate that Potter has already met with INEOS chief Sir Jim Ratcliffe.
Reports suggest that there is a sense of resignation among the United locker room regarding ten Hag’s tenure, hinting at a looming dismissal.

The team’s performance this season has reached a new low, with mounting disappointments including an early exit from the UEFA Champions League, a sixth-place position in the Premier League, and elimination from the Carabao Cup.
While injuries have plagued the team, ten Hag’s inability to deliver results has left his future uncertain. However, no official statement has been released regarding his potential departure, leaving room for speculation.
