Man Utd make ‘new Zinedine Zidane approach’ with emergency meeting held tonight

Manchester United will make an improved approach to Zinedine Zidane in the wake of Saturday’s humiliating 4-1 defeat at Watford, according to reports. After his tumbling tenure hit a new low at Vicarage Road, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is set to be sacked as manager.

United have lost five of their last seven Premier League games, and the collapse against Watford was arguably the most damning of the lot.

The Times reported that the board had called an emergency meeting to discuss Solskjaer’s position in the aftermath.

The Norwegian boss’ compensation terms were on the agenda of a virtual discussion that commenced at 7pm.

And United have settled on their priority replacement ahead of an imminent transition period.
