Ten Hag and Rangnick push for Mitchell at Manchester United
Arrived in Monaco in the summer of 2020 with a good reputation, Paul Mitchell has not been spared criticism for two years, although these have been less numerous since ASM has won a string of victories. On March 19, when Monaco had not yet managed to move up the rankings, L’Equipe revealed that Dimitri Rybolovlev had to clean up this summer and separate from his sporting director. Has Monaco’s current 4th place in Ligue 1 changed the situation?
Mitchell open to Monaco departure
Passed younger by Tottenham and Southampton, as well as Leipzig, the English leader has in any case the coast in the country and his name has been associated with Newcastle and Manchester United in recent months. According to Sky Sports and its reporter Florian Plettenberg, interest from United remains strong and Mitchell is open to a move from Monaco this summer.

Ralf Rangnick, who is acting on the Mancunian bench until the end of the season before normally occupying an advisory role, and Erik ten Hag, his successor, would thus push for Paul Mitchell. Both would have highly recommended him to their executives to come in for the position of technical director or head of recruiting. “But other decision-makers are against this idea”however, specifies Sky Sport.
