The next permanent manager of Manchester United has been a hotly-debated topic ever since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was sacked in November.
The Norwegian was replaced by current incumbent Ralf Rangnick on an interim basis until the end of the season, but the German has failed to inspire the Red Devils to better things in his tenure.

He has stayed loyal to the Dutch club having been there since 2017 despite interest from elsewhere, but the decision-makers at Old Trafford see a lot of potential with him and with former favourite Edwin van der Sar CEO at the Dutch champions, could find a way to prise him away.
Brendan Rodgers
Club: Leicester
