According to the "Sun" report, Italian coach Mancini has told his friends that he believes he has a chance to become a candidate for Manchester United's next head coach, provided that the club fires current coach Amorim.

According to reports, the 60-year-old Italian coach has been unemployed since leaving the Saudi national team a year ago. He is believed to have been in contact with new Manchester United boss Sir Ratcliffe as the pair both have homes in the south of France and have met socially. Mancini has a brilliant coaching resume, having led Manchester City to win the Premier League championship and led the Italian national team to win the 2020 European Cup.

However, the article also pointed out that considering his deep connection with the Manchester City club, it is unlikely that he will switch to his city rivals Manchester United. In addition to Mancini, other people rumored to have scandals with Manchester United's coaching positions include Southgate and Glasner.

Despite the rumors, the report finally mentioned that the position of current coach Amorim is currently safe because he has recently received public support from his boss Sir Ratcliffe.
