Gareth Southgate may target a dream contract if he becomes MU's coach.
Currently, the position of Ruben Amorim in Old Trafford is threatened after MU's poor achievement. After the first 3 matches in 2025/26, not knowing to win, typically the defeat was difficult to accept before the 4th Grimsby team in the League Cup, MU had a victory “refreshing” 3-2 against Burnley over the weekend.
The current concentration of the national team will bring some time to rest for Amorim, but the rumors of his future continue to surround. According to Oddschecker, former England coach, Gareth Southgate is currently the second brightest candidate for the seat coach MU coach with the ratio of 5/1 (ordering 1 for 5), only after Oliver Glasner (Crystal Palace coach), who is the number one candidate at 4/1 ratio.
At the PFA Awards in Manchester in August last year, Southgate responded about whether or not to return to the military career or not: “You can not say it will never. 15 years ago, I left Middlesbrough and was not sure if I continued to be a coach or not.
Although Southgate kept a cautious position, a prospect that could make him fluctuate, it was reuniting with one of his most beloved and reliable students. Striker Harry Kane – England captain and currently wearing Bayern Munich – was contacted to MU in 2023. Recently, rumors he could return to the Premier League.
According to El Nacional (Spain) in March, close sources revealed Kane, 32, prioritized to Liverpool. However, this ability is very low because the Merseyside team has recruited Alexander Isak and Hugo Ekitike. In theory, the fact that Kane and Southgate reunited in MU is not impossible, but will need a lot of factors for it to come true.
The duo used to be together in England in the period of 2016 to 2024, together to bring the Three Lions to the semi -finals of the World Cup and two Euro finals.
