Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti receives offer from Premier League giants to take over as manager: Reports
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has reportedly received an offer from Premier League giants Manchester United.
United have made a torrid start to their campaign, having lost a whopping nine times across competitions. That comprises five defeats in the league, where they're sixth in the standings, six points off leaders Arsenal after 13 games.
In the UEFA Champions League, the Red Devils have fared worse, losing three of their four games and teetering on the brink of an exit. They need to beat Galatasaray (away) and Bayern Munich (home) to give themselves a chance of making the knockouts.
United have made an early exit from the EFL Cup, losing in the second round, as their title defence ended in a whimper. Despite their recent resurgence of sorts, especially in the league, Erik ten Hag remains linked with an exit from the club.
Arancha MOBILE (via Madrid Xtra) have reported that Los Blancos boss Ancelotti could arrive at Old Trafford in 2024. The Italian has achieved great success across two stints at the Santiago Bernabeu.
His team lead the Spanish top flight on goal difference after 14 games and also lead the Champions League, winning all four games. The Italian is in the final year of his deal at the club but hasn't agreed an extension yet.
Ancelotti is widely tipped to take the Brazil job in the summer, but United could be an enticing proposition.
