Inter Milan head coach Antonio Conte would be interested in becoming Manchester United manager in the future, according to reports in Italy.
The Italian could well leave the Nerazzurri following a series of run-ins with the club’s board, and the former Chelsea boss is believed to be keen on a return to England if the United becomes available in the future.
Supporters on Twitter are very much split down the middle on whether the Manchester club should consider hiring Conte if Ole Gunnar Solskjaer were to be sacked:
Couldn’t deal with him winging 24/7?

Yes great manager

He won’t get backed by the board and will end up like Mourinho and Van Gaal
— MartialTheGoat (@martial_goat) August 23, 2020
He’ll be retired by the time Ole finishes his 25 year tenure

Hell no. Mourinho v2.0

Just maybe , a decent shout if the time comes . One things for sure we will start playing 3-5-2 or 3-4-3 and have at least 4 wingbacks as signings .

Nope In Ole I trust as long as he gets backed

At the moment, the Red Devils are not in a market for a new manager with the club putting their complete trust in Solskjaer.
However, if that were to change in the future, there is no doubt that Conte would be in the frame, along with former Tottenham coach Mauricio Pochettino. Whether either would be available the next time the United job comes up, though, it is very doubtful.
