Oliver Glasner responds to Manchester United head coach links

Manchester United’s managerial search has intensified following Ruben Amorim’s shock sacking on Monday morning, leaving the Red Devils in urgent need of a permanent appointment.

Fans and pundits alike have speculated over potential replacements, with several high-profile names being linked to the club, including Eddie Howe, Roberto De Zerbi, and Enzo Maresca.

The board are under pressure to find someone capable of guiding the team back into Europe, and any decision will have to balance long-term vision with immediate results.

The summer window looms large, and whoever takes the reins at Old Trafford will need to hit the ground running.

Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner has addressed speculation linking him with the Manchester United role.

Speaking to reporters, Oliver Glasner said: “I am Crystal Palace manager and it makes no sense for you to ask me any more questions about it.”

The Austrian’s response is firm, clearly underlining his focus on his current club despite the allure of managing one of England’s biggest sides.

Glasner’s name has emerged as a leading contender due to his impressive work in South London, where he has transformed Palace into a competitive Premier League outfit and recently lifted their first-ever FA Cup trophy.

United’s hierarchy will now have to weigh the challenge of potentially luring Glasner away versus considering other candidates who could start immediately without contractual complications.

Glasner’s stance also signals a potential waiting game for Manchester United, as his contract with Palace runs until the end of the season.

Whoever ultimately secures the role will inherit a team that has struggled for consistency and now faces the task of climbing back into European contention.

Glasner’s focus on Palace suggests that any approach will require careful negotiation and timing if Old Trafford is to land the Austrian.

The coming weeks will be crucial in defining Manchester United’s managerial future, with fans eagerly awaiting clarity on who will take over following Amorim’s abrupt exit.
