Graham Potter, who previously managed Chelsea, is gearing up for a return to coaching after his departure from Stamford Bridge in April.
While declining opportunities with Lyon and Leicester, recent reports suggest he might be a contender to replace Erik ten Hag at Manchester United.
The Red Devils are facing a challenging season, highlighted by their Champions League exit and a series of disappointing performances in both domestic and European competitions.
The pressure on current manager Ten Hag has intensified, fueling speculation about potential changes in leadership at Old Trafford.
Graham Potter is a top contender, according to bookmakers, to potentially replace Erik ten Hag at Manchester United.
There is speculation about INEOS, led by Sir Jim Ratcliffe and set to acquire a 25% stake in United, having an interest in Potter, who was previously considered for the managerial role at OGC Nice, another INEOS-owned club.
While members of United’s proposed new management reportedly admire Potter’s work, significant changes are not expected until a new football department is established.
Ten Hag, backed by the club so far, is under scrutiny, and results may influence any potential managerial adjustments at Old Trafford.
Potter’s successful track record includes a notable tenure at Brighton and achievements with Swansea City and Ostersund, showcasing his managerial prowess.
