, they are unlikely to appoint Tuchel or Pochettino as the new manager.
Although Tuchel's agent was in contact with United before the end of the season and has also had a meeting in the last two weeks, there are some concerns that he will not fit into United's new structure. According to sources, incoming United sporting director Dan Ashworth wants United's new coach to be someone who is good at pandering rather than someone who will present a challenge to the club.
In addition, United are not too interested in appointing Mauricio Pochettino. As well as Tuchel and Pochettino, United have also been in touch with Thomas Frank and De Zerbi. McKenna has extended his contract with Ipswich, while Southgate has said he will focus on the Europa League for now.
United are expected to conclude their review of the season this week, but the future of Ten Hundred remains unclear, it has been reported. Although United have delayed a decision on their managerial selection, their summer plans are still on track. United's senior management has assured senior players that the issue of Ten Hahn's future will not affect the team's reinforcement program.
United are currently prioritizing strengthening at striker and center back, with a list of targets in all positions already drawn up. The inconclusive nature of Ten Hahn's future is due to the pending Bresford-led review on the season, which has now lasted three weeks. A number of United players' agents have contacted the club to enquire about the progress of the review, Ten Hahn's position and progress in attracting reinforcements.
United are also set to sell Greenwood and Sancho this summer to increase the club's budget in the summer window. It is understood that United's psychological expectation of their price of about 40 million pounds, the two last season were loaned to Getafe and Borussia Dortmund respectively.
United's future managerial choices are still up in the air, but the club's reinforcement program and summer preparations will continue regardless of the final outcome.
