The Champions League exit confirmed that Manchester United will end the season without any trophy for a fifth straight year. This has forced those in charge to take some bold steps as they aim to take the club back to where it was before. This starts with appointing a new manager to take over the club and current Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel is at the top of the list. LOSC Lille 1–2 Chelsea, UCL 2021–22 Video Highlights.

It is understood that Manchester United CEO, Richard Arnold, will like to appoint Thomas Tuchel before the end of the season instead of waiting till the summer. Mauricio Pochettino has always been the club’s top choice but they have turned their attention towards the German boss amid the ongoing situation at Chelsea.

Manchester United believe that Thomas Tuhcel is available at the moment and can be lured to leave Chelsea. The uncertainty over the German’s future at the Blues and Mauricio Pochetino’s inability to make a star-studded PSG team play as a unit, has played a crucial role in this change of decision when it comes to the next manager.

Thomas Tuchel also has a great record since coming to England. He led Chelsea to a Champions League title within six months of his appointment. He has also managed himself and the team well since the sanctions were imposed on the club.
