Schmeichel suggested that his former club could look to replace Ten Hag with Tuchel, given his experience at big clubs.

I like Thomas Tuchel.

I mean, he won the Champions League, didn’t he?

Klopp would be fantastic for Man United as well.”

Liverpool.com says: There is no doubting Tuchel's managerial credentials and he has already shown that at Chelsea in the Premier League.

He could yet claim the Champions League again this season and would be an impressive appointment by United.
