England football – Rudi Garcia to lead Cristiano Ronaldo, Man United believes in it
Looking for an interim coach until the end of the season, Manchester United would be interested in several profiles including that of Rudi Garcia. Despite the criticism of which the French technician is the subject, the Mancunian club would particularly appreciate its ability to redress teams in difficulty.
Although qualified for the knockout stages of the Champions League, Manchester United is in a hurry. The current Premier League eighth is actively seeking a manager after Norwegian Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s dismissal last weekend. This is why the name of Mauricio Pochettino returns with insistence in the articles of the English press, while the coach of Paris Saint-Germain and his superiors do not seem to consider a separation in the immediate future.
In the middle of the season, Manchester United will have more chances with a technician free from any contract, like Rudi Garcia. The information may amuse some and yet it is not a joke. According to journalist Andy Mitten, in collaboration with the BBC, The Athletic or Sky Sports, the Mancunian club would have probed the French for the position of manager of the Red Devils. The former coach of Olympique Lyonnais, not retained at the end of his lease this summer, would have met leaders including Darren Fletcher before the victory at Villarreal (0-2) in the Champions League on Tuesday.
Rudi Garcia is popular abroad
Apparently, the idea of seeing Rudi Garcia leading players like Cristiano Ronaldo poses no problem, Manchester United being seduced by his ability to turn around struggling teams, and his fluency in English. It must still be recognized that Rudi Garcia is one of the few French coaches recognized abroad after his stint at Roma. Let us also recall his final of the Europa League with Olympique de Marseille and his half of the Champions League with the Gones. Of course, Rudi Garcia is not the only coveted manager, but his profile would match Manchester United who are looking for an interim to end the season.
