It has been few tough weeks for Manchester United fans. The team lost in FA Cup then lost point against bottom-placed Burnely, one of the upcoming stars of the club is now arrested and many more. However, the one thing, which can be changed is the management.
Ralf Rangnick joined the United coaching after Ole Gunnar was sacked. As of now, the chances of United making Rangnick seems very low, especially considering the recent results. So, who will be in charge of Manchester United next season?
Who is The Favorite To Become Manchester United Manager Next Season?
Ralf Rangnick might leave United’s role as a manager, but he will be continuing at the club with a new role. Rangnick will be in a consultancy role for the United management and will play a key role in selecting the new manager.
Ralf Rangnick prefers Erik ten Hag while majority of the Man Utd squad prefer Pochettino.
The players should NEVER decide who the next manager should be. Get Ten Hag and bin any player that needs binning. It's time that player power nonsense stops.

After sacking Ole, United were keen to sign former Tottenham Hotspurs boss Mauricio Pochettino. However, it was not possible because the Argentinian was already managing a squad filled with stars at PSG. But, it doesn’t mean it’s impossible to land him at Old Trafford.
Now, according to ESPN, Manchester United players want Pochettino to become their manager. Pochettino might gift PSG the league trophy, but it will be not enough to impress the board, as they have one of the dream teams on the paper.
As a result, Poch might leave PSG next summer.
Erik Ten Hag Joins The Race For United Coach
The twist in the turn comes with Erik Ten Hag. Currently, Erik is managing a young squad of Ajax and he is very much famous for dealing with his players and bringing out the best of them.
Recently, Ajax sacked Marc Overmars who was a very close friend of Ten Hag at Ajax. As a result, rumors speculate, Ten Hag might also leave Ajax next summer. Another point to add here is Ralf Rangnick also wants Ten Hag as the next manager.
Erik ten Hag on his future: “Marc Overmars and me were definitely a strong duo. But to think about this now… it's not about me now. We need to process what happened”, he told @MikeVerweij. 🔴 #Ajax

Speaking on the links, en Hag said, “I will start looking at the consequences. I won’t think about my future now”.
So, now it seems like players are preferring Mauricio Pochettino but Ralf Rangnick wants Erik Ten Hag as United’s next manager.
Only time will tell, who will be United’s next manager. As of now, you can drop your views on the situation.
