Manchester United are determined to announce their new manager by the end of April, according to a report.

Manchester United are reportedly determined to announce their new manager by the end of April, with the club working overtime to secure the right candidate.

Interim head coach Ralf Rangnick will step aside for the arrival of a new boss at the end of the 2021-22 campaign, and Paris Saint-Germain's Mauricio Pochettino and Ajax's Erik ten Hag are viewed as the two favourites for the position at Old Trafford.

However, it has also been suggested that Man United are keeping a close eye on Thomas Tuchel's situation at Chelsea amid the recent off-the-field problems at Stamford Bridge.

According to the Daily Mail, the 20-time English champions are hopeful of being able to confirm their new manager by the end of next month.

The report claims that Rangnick is still open to taking the role on a long-term basis, but the German is expected to step into a two-year consultancy role this summer, as previously agreed.

Man United will be bidding to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they welcome fellow top-four challengers Tottenham Hotspur to Old Trafford on Saturday evening.

The Red Devils will then host Atletico Madrid in the Champions League next week, with the two teams level at 1-1 following the first leg of their last-16 tie in Spain last month.
