Atletico Madrid Boss Diego Simeone Makes Stunning Claim About Man United Ahead of UCL Cracker
FootballMan United Managerial Candidate Spotted at Wanda Metropolitano to Watch Red Devils in Action
- Spain national team head coach Luis Enrique is among the experienced tacticians linked with the Man United job
- The Spaniard fuelled speculation he could move to England after he turned up at Wanda Metropolitano to watch United in action
- The Champions League last 16 clash ended in a 1-1 draw, with the Red Devils managing to stage a comeback to secure a vital result
Luis Enrique was among thousands of fans who turned up at Atletico Madrid's Wanda Metropolitano to watch Man United in action in the Champions League.
The experienced Spanish tactician is among a host of managers who have been linked with the Old Trafford job.
Paris Saint-Germain boss Mauricio Pochettino and Ajax's Erik ten Hag are understood to be the favourites to take charge at the Theatre of Dreams once Ralf Rangnick step aside at the end of the season.
However, Enrique's presence at the Wanda Metropolitano is expected to fuel the speculation of a possible move to England.
Be that as it may, Mirror UK reports it is not unusual for the Spain national team coach to show up at stadiums to watch his players in action.
Enrique is understood to be under contract with his national side so it is certainly a difficult target should the Red Devils choose to pursue him to take charge at the end of the season.
Man United stage comeback to hold Atletico
Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid's Champions League last 16 meeting with United ended in a 1-1 draw - meaning there will be everything to play for when the two teams lock horns in the second leg to be played at Old Trafford.
The hosts had themselves to blame for failing to win the tie having dominated proceedings from the blow of the whistle.
Joao Felix handed the La Liga giants a deserved lead inside seven minutes of action, only for Anthony Elanga to come off the bench to secure a vital draw for Rangnick's side.
