Under the potential leadership of Sir Jim Ratcliffe, a former Premier League manager could become an attractive option for Manchester United. If Ratcliffe decides to part ways with Erik ten Hag, it’s conceivable that Manchester United might turn their attention to Graham Potter, a former manager of both Chelsea and Brighton.
Ratcliffe is rumored to be on the verge of acquiring a 25% stake in the organization, and such a significant ownership change might pave the way for substantial alterations at Old Trafford.
The Sun has reported that Ratcliffe is contemplating the possibility of bringing in Potter as a replacement for Erik ten Hag, who, according to some, hasn’t made a remarkable impression as the manager of Manchester United so far.
It’s worth noting that key figures close to Ratcliffe have also expressed a desire for Potter to take charge at Nice. However, the big question remains whether Manchester United will be willing to take the gamble on this managerial shift.
Graham Potter had a rather impressive stint at Brighton, where he showcased his managerial prowess. Nonetheless, his tenure at Chelsea was marred by significant challenges, making it difficult to envision him landing another high-profile position within the top six clubs anytime in the near future.
Should Manchester United decide to part ways with Erik ten Hag, there are potentially more qualified and appealing candidates in the market who could offer the team a substantial and genuine improvement. The impending changes at Old Trafford, under the possible ownership of Sir Jim Ratcliffe, have stirred up speculation and discussions regarding the club’s future direction and its potential managerial choices. Whether Graham Potter is the right fit and whether he can successfully steer Manchester United back to their former glory remains uncertain, but it’s evident that significant transformations are on the horizon for the club.
