In a surprising turn of events, Thomas Tuchel has officially signed an 18-month deal with the FA. This news has caused quite a stir, especially with Manchester United fans who were previously convinced that Tuchel would be taking over as their new head coach.
Rumors had been swirling for months that Tuchel would be replacing Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford. In fact, Tuchel had even been interviewed by United last summer and was a top contender for the job. However, the club ultimately decided to give Ten Hag a new one-year deal and make changes to his backroom staff.
But now, with United off to their worst start in Premier League history, tensions are high and Ten Hag's position is being called into question. It was reported that Tuchel had verbally agreed to take over for Ten Hag, but Manchester United has denied these claims and had no intention of hiring him.
Despite the speculation, Ten Hag is still expected to be in charge for this weekend's match against Brentford. However, a loss could further increase the pressure on him, even though the board is determined to support him.
