“I am ready for a new challenge by managing Man United but i need to make sure that the board is committed to my needs. If You can successfully sign the young Brazilian I’m asking for then I’ll join Man United” – This is according to Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique as he is reportedly advocating for Manchester United to pursue a transfer for Brazilian forward as his condition to join as the club’s new manager.

Manchester United are in the process of planning their managerial future following the departure of Ruben Amorim. The immediate step is to appoint a caretaker manager until the season concludes, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Michael Carrick reportedly the leading candidates.

Concurrently, the club is expected to pursue a permanent manager with a proven track record to lead a long-term rebuild. Among the names linked with the role is Luis Enrique, the current Paris Saint-Germain coach. Reports suggest Enrique is prepared to leave the French champions and is interested in taking on a new challenge in the Premier League with Manchester United. The Spaniard boasts an impressive managerial CV, including two Champions League titles, and his potential availability is seen as a significant opportunity.

However, it is understood that Enrique would expect substantial backing in the transfer market if appointed. According to reports, he has already begun considering potential signings, with Real Madrid forward Rodrygo high on his wishlist. Enrique is said to view the Brazilian winger as a “top-level” player around whom to build a project at Old Trafford. Rodrygo, despite his talent, has faced inconsistent playing time under manager Xabi Alonso at Madrid, leading to speculation about his future. Previous reports have indicated Real Madrid could be open to a sale for a fee around €80 million.
