Manchester United won four games on the trot under Michael Carrick, something the team never managed under Ruben Amorim.
They then salvaged a late point against West Ham United and are currently on a five-match unbeaten run.
The attractive playing style, utilizing players in their natural positions and giving them the freedom to express themselves have ensured that the Red Devils have climbed to fourth place in the Premier League.
Champions League qualification is now a very real possibility, and naturally fans are eager to see INEOS hand the keys to the kingdom to the acting head coach.
Thomas Tuchel has signed a new contract
However, the co-owners are expected to take their time, and the former midfielder is not at the top of their wish list. Who is? Thomas Tuchel.
The English manager’s charisma and winning mentality, combined with other superstar managers who have dropped out of the race, have made the German the preferred candidate to take charge this summer.
However, the 20-time English league champions were shocked by the update that the Three Lions had agreed a contract extension until 2028 with the former Champions League-winning coach.
Many predicted this would end United’s pursuit, but… SportsBoom have a different story to tell.
Secret clause means United will not drop out of the race
According to their report, Tuchel’s new deal includes a break clause, which would see the ex-Chelsea boss leave if England fail to reach the semi-finals in the US.
“Thomas Tuchel is still expected to part ways with England this summer if they underperform at the World Cup, despite only putting pen to paper on a new extended contract last week, SportsBoom can reveal.
“However, sources close to the England squad believe he is unlikely to remain at the helm beyond the upcoming tournament in North America and Mexico if they fail to reach at least the semi-finals.
“While its exact contents remain a closely guarded secret, a senior figure with knowledge of the situation suggested last night that the deal Tuchel accepted was likely to contain a breakout clause, allowing all parties involved to tear up the agreement in certain circumstances.”
Carrick or Tuchel? INEOS must make the right decision
Thomas Tuchel getting the United job may be what INEOS wants, but the current squad has other ideas. Club skipper Bruno Fernandes gives the board a summer ultimatum.
He will leave if Carrick doesn’t get the permanent job. An interesting mystery lies ahead.
