Several Manchester United players are already on board with the idea of Gareth Southgate becoming the club’s new manager.
The England chief, 53, has been touted as a potential successor to Erik ten Hag in recent weeks with the Dutchman’s long-term future unclear. And with the end of the season fast approaching, it seems there’s every chance Ineos will opt to make a managerial change in the summer.
The Star revealed on Tuesday afternoon that Southgate would be their No.1 choice should they choose to replace Ten Hag – and it’s now emerged that some of the current playing squad would endorse such a move.
Southgate has worked with a number of United players during his seven-year spell in charge of the national team and has built key relationships with said players. His current contract is due to expire later this year after the European Championships but United are likely to try and lure him to Manchester in the summer.

Ratcliffe and Ineos are still believed to have major reservations about Ten Hag’s suitability to take the club forward. He enjoyed a fine maiden campaign at the helm, winning the Carabao Cup, but has failed to live up to expectations this year.
Winning the FA Cup and securing qualification for the Champions League may not even be enough to keep Ten Hag in his current role long term, although Ratcliffe’s current focus is on overhauling the club’s off-field structure.
Omar Berrada has already been poached from Manchester City to become the club’s new chief executive officer. Dan Ashworth is another name who is expected to play a prominent role under the club’s new regime as sporting director once an agreement for his services is reached with Newcastle.
Join the debate! Would Southgate be a good appointment for Man Utd? Let us know here.
