United turn attention to another Italian boss as Mourinho’s replacement

Manchester United seem to be making some progress with caretaker manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after winning two of their last consecutive games with a 100 per cent record, they are still out for a permanent boss.

The Red Devils parted ways with former manager Jose Mourinho few weeks back after he failed to deliver good result for the team with the latest being the 3-1 defeat suffered against Liverpool.

Since then, the Red Devils have been in search of a new and permanent manager who is of top quality and has the capacity to lead a big team like United.

However, Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino was mentioned as a possible candidate but with suggestions that he might not be interested in parting ways with his current side, United are reported to be turning attention to Juventus boss Max Allegri who could be available.

Max Allegri has been in charge of the Italian Champions since 2014 and he could be lured away from Turin if the right offer is submitted knowing that he is one of the most experienced managers currently in Europe.

Meanwhile, pundits have asked United to consider Ole Gunnar Solskjaer who has returned his former club to winning ways and has also changed their dull football pattern to an attacking one.
