I even had hoped that Man United would be interested in signing Xabi Alonso because I think what makes Man United what it is today is Ten Hag's incompetence in coaching Man United and I think if Xabi Alonso handles Man United, then they will have the potential to be even better.
However, these hopes immediately vanished when I heard rumors that Liverpool were interested in Xabi Alonso. As we know, Jurgen Klopp will leave Liverpool at the end of this season, so Liverpool will definitely look for a new coach to replace Jurgen Klopp. If Xabi Alonso was faced with the option of choosing Liverpool or Man United, he would most likely choose Liverpool. The reason is certainly clear because he has a strong history and chemistry with Liverpool.
Is it true that Manchester United will sack Erik Ten Hag this summer? I don't think this rumor is too strong although they are interested in Xabi Alonso, the Leverkusen coach is indeed being attracted by other European clubs including Bayern Munich themselves are interested in Xabi Alonso's job but it will not be easy including Manchester United.
It is true that if Xabi Alonso is faced with two choices of Manchester United and Liverpool it is likely that he will choose Liverpool he is a legend of Liverpool players when he was young then there is hope he goes there.
If with this choice, it is likely that Manchester United will keep Erik Ten Hag until his contract expires.
