Man Utd now eyeing move for 'genius' manager, he wants the job - Ben Jacobs

Manchester United's hunt for a new manager is continuing ahead of the summer, and it has now emerged that a highly-rated boss would be open to the job, according to GIVEMESPORT senior correspondent Ben Jacobs.

The Red Devils parted ways with Ruben Amorim in January after 14 months in charge and have appointed Michael Carrick as interim boss until the end of the campaign, with the former midfielder racking up five wins in six games to help the team move to just three points off third place.

But despite his performance so far, United are still looking at all their options and potential candidates, and that includes managers who are currently still in work, and some who could be available after the World Cup.

Man Utd Next Manager: Nagelsmann Open to Job

A number of international managers have been linked with a move to Old Trafford, but in recent weeks INEOS have been hit with a blow.

Thomas Tuchel penned a new contract with England, while Carlo Ancelotti has agreed a long-term extension with Brazil. But another manager who has been linked with the Old Trafford job is Germany boss Julian Nagelsmann, and he is expected to be available after the World Cup this summer.

Described as a 'genius', the former Bayern boss is out of contract following the tournament and having previously managed in the Bundesliga to great success, Ben Jacobs told The United Stand that he would be keen to take on a role in the Premier League.

"Julian Nagelsmann would be interested in a Premier League job, unlike some other names," he said.

"Thomas Tuchel has signed a new deal [with England], Carlo Ancelotti extending as well [with Brazil. He is expected to be available, as it stands, on the market."

What Would Nagelsmann Do at Man Utd?

At just 38-years-old, Nagelsmann has had a phenomenal career as a manager already, winning the Bundesliga once and Super Cup twice, playing an exciting style of football that prioritises attacking and entertaining.

GIVEMESPORT asked ChatGPT what he would do as Man Utd manager, and this was its response:

Julian Nagelsmann would implement a high-intensity, vertical style with structured pressing and quick transitions.

Introduce tactical flexibility: back three or 4-2-2-2 depending on opposition.

Emphasise positional rotations and half-space overloads.

Develop young talent and improve coaching detail on the training ground.

Demand aggressive counter-pressing and compact defensive spacing.

Modernise analysis, data use and in-game adaptability.
