Guardiola says he is not sure this coach will be successful at Man Utd

Man City manager Pep Guardiola has said he is not sure Ajax manager Erik Ten Hag will be successful at Old Trafford.

It is no longer news that Ten Hag is likely to be Man Utd next coach, having being interviewed by the club’s decision makers some days ago.

Guardiola in a statement said that no manager is guaranteed to bring success as he hailed the record of Ten Hag, who he worked with for two years at Bayern Munich.

The Dutchman coached the second team and Guardiola says his quality has always been clear.

“If I was 100% sure I would call Manchester United and tell those guys you have to take him. But I don’t know and nobody knows,” Guardiola said when asked if Ten Hag would be a success in the Premier League.

“He is a good manager, there’s no doubt about it. But so were all the previous managers since Sir Alex Ferguson left.

“You cannot say David Moyes is not a good football manager and the others like Jose Mourinho or right now. All the managers that have been at United are excellent.”
