Manchester United supporters will be counting down the days until the season ends, anticipating a summer of upheaval at Old Trafford.
Erik ten Hag is only a few weeks away from taking over as United's new manager, and he'll have a hard job picking up the pieces after a disappointing season.
The next manager will be looking to bring in a slew of fresh faces, with a number of names already being linked, while a significant number of players could be on their way out.
Dutch coach Fred Rutten has revealed he's turned down the opportunity to become Erik ten Hag's assistant at Manchester United.
Ten Hag was officially confirmed as United's next manager last month. Ten Hag joins United on a three-year contract with the option of an additional year and he's set to arrive at Old Trafford after trying to win the Eredivisie with Ajax.
The 52-year-old is also set to bring some of his own staff with him to United, while he'll also inherit some existing members of the backroom staff — Ralf Rangnick appointed Chris Armas and Sascha Lense this season — at the club. Mitchell Van der Gaag, currently assistant at Ajax, is set to join Ten Hag in Manchester, however, United are yet to finalise terms on that deal and contracts for other assistant coaches.
Paul Pogba is expected to be one of them, with recent reports suggesting he might be on his way to the Etihad Stadium from Manchester United.
Manchester City's alleged interest has sparked a lot of discussion, and it will no sure continue to do so as the transfer window approaches.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Paul Pogba is ready to talks with any team about a transfer.
Paris Saint-Germain is one of the clubs involved, according to the transfer expert, and Manchester City has been exploring his name internally as a midfield possibility.
Despite the fact that Pogba has been mentioned at the Etihad, it is believed that there are presently no advanced negotiations between Man City and Pogba, but that City is definitely interested.
