Manchester United have put plans in place to replace Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with a successful Serie A coach, while PSV have said bidding for a prized young asset will start at €30m, according to Tuesday’s European papers.
MAN UTD PREPARING FOR ALLEGRI APPOINTMENT
Manchester United are keen to appoint Massimiliano Allegri as their new manager if results continue to go south under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, claims a report in Italy.
The former Juventus manager has emerged as United’s No 1 choice to take over at Old Trafford, claims Tuttosport, with the Red Devils down in eighth place in the Premier League and giving serious thoughts to the Norwegian’s future.
As per the report, United are ready to move for Allegri sooner rather than later, with the Italian also emerging as possible future options for both Barcelona and Real Madrid, with doubts also emerging over Ernesto Valverde and Zinedine Zidane, respectively.
It’s suggested however that United have already sounded out the 52-year-old’s representatives over a move to United and want a deal in place to appoint him as and when they dispense of Solskjaer’s services.
Reports on Monday also suggested United want to sign Paulo Dybala again in January and growing links to Allegri will only heighten these claims with the Argentine a big favourite of the latter at Juventus.
As per the article in Tuttosport, Laurent Blanc is United’s second choice to Allegri should they part company with Solskjaer.
