The report states that former Germany national team coach Julian Nagelsmann is a candidate to coach English Manchester United, should current coach Michael Carrick leave. This comes against the backdrop of the team's disappointing results, most recently a 1-4 loss to Italian hosts Como in the Champions League. The British Daily Telegraph revealed that Nagelsmann tops the list of candidates at Old Trafford, indicating his readiness to enter negotiations if he receives an offer. United has only won one of its first three matches in the continental competition, and also only one win in seven matches in the English Premier League, the team's worst start in England since 1986. Manchester United is scheduled to play its next league match against Bournemouth next Sunday. Nagelsmann resigned from coaching the German national team last July, following the team's disappointing exit in the round of 32 of the World Cup against Paraguay, having previously coached clubs in the German Bundesliga: Hoffenheim, Leipzig, and Bayern Munich. Speculation has also circulated about the possibility of Nagelsmann returning to Leipzig, given the team's modest start this season under new coach Martin Demichelis.
