Erik ten Hag, the former manager of Manchester United, has emerged as a top candidate to take the reins at Bundesliga club RB Leipzig according to a report by Sky Germany.
The move comes as Leipzig’s current manager, Marco Rose, faces mounting pressure to turn around the team’s dismal run of form.
Leipzig has suffered a string of disappointing losses, including a humiliating 5-1 defeat at home to Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga.
The team’s recent performance has seen them drop to fourth place in the Bundesliga table, prompting speculation about Rose’s future at the club.
Ten Hag, who was sacked as Manchester United manager in October after a poor start to his third season at Old Trafford, is reportedly being considered by Leipzig as a potential replacement for Rose.
The Dutchman’s experience and tactical acumen make him an attractive candidate for the Leipzig job.
However, Erik ten Hag is not the only candidate in the running for the Leipzig position.
Former Benfica manager Roger Schmidt is also believed to be in contention for the role, having left the Portuguese club at the end of August.
As the situation at Leipzig continues to unfold, it remains to be seen whether ten Hag will be offered the job and whether he will accept the challenge of turning around the team’s fortunes.
