Major blow for INEOS: Top managerial target set to sign new deal

Manchester United have suffered the first major setback to their summer plans.

The Red Devils sacked Ruben Amorim earlier this season, handing the reins to club legend Michael Carrick on an interim basis until the end of the campaign.

Behind the scenes, INEOS have been planning to assess the managerial market after the upcoming World Cup, hoping to take advantage of several high-profile coaches expected to become available.

Thomas Tuchel and Carlo Ancelotti are on that shortlist.
