Former Manchester United coach Erik ten Hach is still popular.
The German kicker reported on the 30th (Korea time) that if coach Sabi Alonso leaves, Leverkusen is considering coach Ten Hag as the first priority to replace him. As is known, Alonso will say goodbye to Leverkusen at the end of this season. Multiple European media, including Germany, reported that `Alonso will put down the Leverkusen baton within weeks.' Fernando Caro, CEO of Leverkusen, also acknowledged this.
Director Alonso is a recognized next-generation master. Coach Alonso, who boasted extraordinary soccer intelligence and leadership since his active days, has been on a roll since his transformation as a leader. Last season was the highlight. He led Leverkusen in second place and won the championship. It was also an unbeaten win. He also won the DFB Pokal. The Europa League lost the final unfortunately, but Leverkusen were the best team last season without needing an explanation. At the center was Alonso's leadership. Manager Alonso received a love call from a big club based on this ability. Liverpool was particularly active, but Alonso led Leverkusen until this season. Although not as much as last season, he has been recognized for his unchanging value by leading Leverkusen's propaganda this season as well.
Real Madrid is also likely to be coach Alonso's next destination. Alonso is said to have stayed at Leverkusen last season and inserted a clause that allows Real Madrid to negotiate freely if it wants. Alonso has played for Real Madrid. Although Carlo Ancelotti's current trip to Brazil has been difficult, Alonso is likely to lead Real Madrid next season.
Right now, Leverkusen is in a new market. Ten Hach is considered the top priority for the successor. Coach Ten Hag has put down the baton at Manchester United due to his poor performance this season and is staying wild. Although he has shown some ups and downs at Manchester United, he is still highly regarded. I am sending love calls from Italy, England, and the United States.
Leverkusen is also courting. In particular, coach Ten Hag worked for Bayern Munich's second team in the early days of his managerial career and had experience in Germany. German is also fluent. Occupancy football, which has been shown since Ajax, is still competitive. In particular, Coach Huvin Amorim, who came as his replacement, is struggling, and Coach Ten Hag is being reevaluated. Ten Hag has lifted two FA Cup trophies for Manchester United.
In addition to Ten Hach, former Barcelona coach Chavi Hernandez is also considered a strong candidate. In a recent interview, Chabi expressed his desire to coach outside of Spain, and Leverkusen has nominated him. It is highly regarded for being a candidate who can inherit the aggressive and detailed soccer created by Alonso.
