Tuchel ‘did not want’ to work in new structure at Man United
Ten Hag’s role when it comes to transfers has been reduced under the new structure, and it is claimed that Tuchel was not prepared to operate in the set-up following his experience at Bayern.
“I would have bet a lot that Tuchel would replace Ten Hag. I recently had another conversation with someone who is very close to that. It was pretty far along, almost in agreement,” Reif told Bild.
“As far as the squad is concerned, the considerations were different. Tuchel said pretty much at the finish line: ‘I’m not doing that! I won’t do that to myself again, that I go to a club and then things come from outside.'”
Tuchel remains without a position, but he is still regarded as one of the favourites for the Man United job if the club decide to make a change in the early stages of the campaign.
Gareth Southgate, who is also now available after leaving England, is also seemingly in the running alongside Ruud van Nistelrooy, with the Dutchman currently an assistant to Ten Hag at Old Trafford.

Ten Hag ‘already under pressure’ at Man United
Ten Hag was handed a 12-month contract extension at Man United when it was decided that he would be remaining in charge of the 20-time English champions.
However, it has been a tough start to the season for the Red Devils, who have only won one of their opening three Premier League matches, suffering two defeats in the process.
Man United have lost their last two in the league to Brighton & Hove Albion and Liverpool, and they currently sit down in 14th spot in the table, already six points off leaders Manchester City.
INEOS chiefs allegedly want to see a big improvement in Man United’s ‘game model’, with senior figures at the club believed to be ‘underwhelmed’ by the team’s poor start to the season.
The Red Devils will be bidding to bounce back from their 3-0 loss to Liverpool when they head to Southampton in the Premier League on September 14.
