"The German tactician reportedly has 'admirers in the corridors of power at United', but he is not viewed as a viable option due to his strong links with the Anfield side. Klopp has yet to return to management following his Liverpool exit in the summer of 2024 and is currently serving as head of global soccer at Red Bull."
"According to Cross, Manchester United would like to appoint a new permanent manager before the World Cup, which kicks off on June 11. This would enable the club to enter the summer transfer window with a new head coach in charge, although Carrick staying beyond the season has not been ruled out."
"United will reportedly hand the former midfielder a permanent contract if he manages to secure Champions League qualification. The Red Devils are unbeaten in their six games under Carrick so far, and next host Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Sunday."
Manchester United has identified Jurgen Klopp as a managerial target despite his strong association with Liverpool. The German manager, currently serving as head of global soccer at Red Bull, has admirers within United's leadership but remains unlikely to be appointed due to his previous role at Anfield. United aims to appoint a permanent manager before the World Cup begins on June 11, allowing a new head coach to oversee summer transfers. Michael Carrick, the interim manager, remains unbeaten in six games and could receive a permanent contract if United secures Champions League qualification. Mauricio Pochettino has also been linked with the role but appears ruled out due to his commitment with the United States national team through the World Cup.
