Manchester United: Fans react to Massimiliano Allegri rumours

Tuttosport (via The Mail) are reporting that former Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri is close to agreeing terms with Manchester United.

The Red Devils have had a far from impressive start this term, winning only two of their opening eight league games, with many fans now calling for current manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to be sacked by the club.

United lie 12th in the top flight as things stand – 15 points off top spot – and face a tough game this weekend when they welcome league leaders Liverpool to Old Trafford.

Tuttosport (via The Mail) reports that Allegri’s move to United would be worth £6.5m a year and would likely help the club acquire long-term transfer target Mario Mandzukic, who was linked heavily with the club during the summer.

Ex-Liverpool midfielder Emre Can, who is currently out of favour in Turin under Maurizio Sarri, could also make the switch to Old Trafford should Allegri be appointed as first-team manager.

Here’s how United fans reacted to the news on Twitter:

Get Big Sam in till the summer than sign Allegri. Please 🙏🏼🙏🏼
