49-year-old ex-Chelsea manager to compete with former Manchester United boss for Bundesliga job

RB Leipzig are looking to appoint a new manager and they have been linked with the likes of Graham Potter and Erik Ten Hag.

According to a report from The Sun, former Chelsea manager Graham Potter could compete with ex-Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag for the job at Bundesliga club RB Leipzig.

Potter has been without work since his departure from Chelsea and the 49-year-old will be desperate to return to action. He has been linked with a move to West Ham United as well. It remains to be seen where he ends up. He has previously shown his quality with Brighton, and there is no doubt that he is a quality manager.

He will be desperate to showcase his abilities at the highest level once again, and a move to the Bundesliga could be an exciting opportunity for him. RB Leipzig have an impressive structure in place within the club and they have a talented squad. Potter could do an impressive job there with the right backing.

Erik ten Hag to Germany?

Meanwhile, Erik ten Hag was shown in the door after a disappointing start to the season. Manchester United backed him heavily, but he failed to get the best out of his players. Ruben Amorim has been appointed as his replacement at Old Trafford. The Dutch manager will now look to get his career back on track and he has been linked with the return to Ajax recently.

It will be interesting to see if he can land the Bundesliga job in the coming weeks. He has shown his quality in the Netherlands in the past and he helped Manchester United win trophies as well. Even though he was not a raging success overall, he has done a reasonable job in English football. It will be interesting to see if he can succeed in Germany now.

RB Leipzig have talented players at their disposal and the former Ajax manager could bring out the best in them. He nurtured an extremely talented team at Ajax during his time at the Dutch club. In Germany, he could work without too much limelight or pressure, and that could help him get his career back on track.
