The legendary Bayern Munich and Germany goalkeeper Oliver Kahn has expressed serious doubts about the potential appointment of Julian Nagelsmann as the new manager of Manchester United.
In a recent interview, Kahn flagged the significant risks associated with such a move for the young coach:
From his perspective, it’s a tricky situation. He lacks extensive experience at the highest level, particularly in foreign clubs. The Premier League and Manchester United, in recent years, have not been known for their stability in managerial appointments.
Kahn underscored that Nagelsmann should seriously consider the implications of taking such a leap in his career:
Should it really be such a massive risk to join Manchester United, where almost every manager has faced failure sooner or later in recent years?
As it stands, Manchester United, under interim management of Michael Carrick, is struggling in 12th place in the Premier League table, having accumulated just 7 points from 7 matches. Meanwhile, Julian Nagelsmann remains without a job following his departure from the Germany national team this summer.
