On Sunday, January 28, Manchester United defeated Newport County 4-2 in the FA Cup fourth round after a fierce battle. Rasmus Hojlund, Kobbie Mainoo, Antony, and Bruno Fernandes scored goals to give the Premier League’s biggest teams a much-needed victory.
In the meantime, the Red Devils have considered Roberto De Zerbi, the manager of Brighton & Hove Albion, as a potential Erik ten Hag replacement. The team is now not trying to bring in Michael Olise, an attacker for Crystal Palace, elsewhere.
The Telegraph reports that Manchester United has considered Roberto De Zerbi, the manager of Brighton & Hove Albion, to succeed Erik ten Hag.
After a dismal season, the Dutch manager is feeling a lot of pressure. After 21 games, the Red Devils sit ninth in the Premier League and are eliminated from both the Champions League and the EFL Cup. Despite making significant investments in the team since joining from Ajax in 2022, Ten Hag still needs to perfect his strategies.
If things don’t get better, INEOS, the new minority owners of the English giants, may be changing management. After his excellent job at the AMEX, De Zerbi has become a contender.
Numerous clubs throughout the continent have shown respect for the Italian for turning the Seagulls into a formidable force. De Zerbi is another player Manchester United is interested in, and he will probably seize the chance to assume leadership at Old Trafford.
Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano claims that Manchester United is not in agreement to buy Michael Olise.
The English striker has been getting better and better since joining Crystal Palace. Despite his season-long injury problems, he scored five goals and one assist in nine appearances across all competitions.
The Red Devils and Chelsea are both interested in Olise, but the 22-year-old would prefer a move to Old Trafford, according to Football London.
But Romano stated that it’s too soon to speculate on the Englishman’s next move in his piece for Caught Offside.
After Antony’s poor play, Ten Hag is looking for offensive reinforcements, and Olise might be a good replacement for the Brazilian.
There has been an update regarding Hannibal Mejbri’s circumstances at Sevilla from Fabrizio Romano. This month, the Tunisian international went on loan to the La Liga powerhouses and got his debut against Girona.
The 21-year-old will not be taken into consideration for selection for some time, according to Sevilla manager Quique Sanchez Flores, who also hinted that the youngster needs to behave himself better.
Romano stated in his Caught Offside column that the Spanish team made the decision as a result of some conflict during practice.
