Manchester United's 'bombshell' that could 'frustrate' Real Madrid's future plans

Manchester United decided to turn around their catastrophic present and dispense with the services of Erik ten Hag. Thus the 'chronicle of a death foretold' reached its inevitable conclusion, since the Dutchman did not finish finding the 'key' in his two and a half seasons in charge of Old Trafford while the Mancunian team continued its vertiginous descent to 'hell'.

The 'red devils' put an end in this way to a stage that, at first, looked promising, but that with the passage of time confirmed that these were simple 'oases'. The now ex-manager of United will receive a 'juicy' severance pay of around 18 million euros and Ruud van Nistelrooy will take the reins of the squad on an interim basis, although he could only take command in the duel against Leicester next Wednesday.

According to various sources, the offices of the Teatro de los Sueños have already made progress on the arrival of Rúben Amorim as the technical director of the team. The journalist Fabrizio Romano assured that the Red Devils have already agreed personal terms with the Portuguese coach, who would earn around seven and eight million euros per year, and only the agreement between the clubs would be missing.

The Spoting CP would only let him leave if the Mancunians deposit his termination clause, valued at 20 'kilos', but in England they maintain that there is an agreement between the Portuguese and Amorim to sign his departure for 10 million, an amount that United would pay without problems. In fact, the lions already give him up for lost and would have chosen Joao Pereira as his replacement.

'Blow' to Manchester City... and possible 'annoyance' to Real Madrid

If the signing of the Portuguese coach goes through, the 'red devils' would 'steal' from Manchester City one of the main candidates to take Pep Guardiola's place on the bench if he ends up leaving the Etihad Stadium at the end of the season. A scenario that could indirectly affect Real Madrid, since the 'skyblues' could try to bring Xabi Alonso to the Premier League.

The San Sebastian native, for his part, is the main objective of the Merengues to take over from Carlo Ancelotti at the Santiago Bernabéu, since everything points to the fact that the Italian's cycle in Chamartín will end next summer. However, if the 'citizens' end up joining the 'race' for the Leverkusen coach, his arrival in the capital would be threatened, although, as of today, everything points to the future of the Tolosa native being in LaLiga.
