Manchester United FC came up with the big news on Thursday (21st) that Dutch sensation Tannhäuser is about to become the new manager of the team. However, the specific list of the coaching team is still undecided. According to the English media, Tannhäuser is looking at a number of assistants, including Ajax's deputy Yunda Kaji, as well as former England national team manager John McCallum. McCarron, who was an assistant coach at Manchester United from '99 to '01, is one of Tannhäuser's "masters," so his return is seen as the most appropriate choice.
The Daily Mail further reports that Tan Hagar has reached a preliminary agreement with Manchester United, but the selection of members of the coaching staff has not yet been agreed. Tannhägger is inclined to invite Yundagaji and McCallum to join him, while the United side wants him to first assess the existing coaching team, which includes Ferran, who has played for Ferguson, and Iwamashi, who was introduced by Ranjik. It is reported that Tannhäuser insists on his choice and United are expected to compromise accordingly.
United are still in contract negotiations with Ajax of Windjammer, and it is expected that the two will be reunited at Manchester United. Tannhäuser, who is about to embark on a Premier League tour, needs someone familiar with English soccer and United as a "guide", and the 60-year-old McCallum is just the man he has in mind. McCarron coached Dutch side Kawardi in 2008, when Tannhäuser was one of his assistants. In addition, McCarron was an assistant coach at Manchester United from '99 to '01, and has a deep understanding of the "Red Devils".
