According to a report by Football Insider, Enzo Maresca is among the front-runners to take over at Old Trafford. On the other hand, a report from TEAMtalk has claimed that the Italian tactician is open to taking over at Manchester United. It will be interesting to see if Manchester United can get the deal done.
The Red Devils have sacked Ruben Amorim, and they need to bring in a quality manager to replace him. They have not been able to perform at the desired level despite signing quality players. The Portuguese tactician had fallen out with the club hierarchy, and it is no surprise that he has been shown the door.
It remains to be seen whether Maresca can come in and turn things around at Manchester United. The Italian tactician showed his quality at Chelsea before his sacking. He helped them win the UEFA Europa Conference League and the FIFA Club World Cup last season.
There is no doubt that Maresca is a quality manager, and he could make a defining impact at Manchester United. The 45-year-old will be expected to turn things around and help Manchester United push for European qualification. They have quality players at their disposal, and a new manager might be able to bring out the best in them.
Ruben Amorim was often slammed for using his players in formations that do not suit them. It remains to be seen whether the Italian tactician is willing to be more flexible to get the best out of his players. Maresca has extensive Premier League experience, and he will be expected to make an immediate impact if he takes over at Old Trafford.
Chelsea have already named their replacement as Liam Rosenior. It remains to be seen whether Manchester United can get the deal done in the coming weeks. Appointing the right manager could help them turn their season around.
