Rodgers Begins House-hunting Near Manchester Amid United Manager’s Job

Brendan Rodgers has reportedly begun house-hunting in Cheshire close to city of Manchester as his chances of landing the Red Devils job continue to grow.

Although United’s board are continuing to back Ole Gunnar Solskjaer despite back-to-back home defeats to Liverpool and Manchester City, that has not stopped them from drawing up a list of potential alternatives should their form not improve.

Solskjaer faces another crunch run of games after the international break, with trips to Villarreal and Chelsea before a resurgent Arsenal visit Old Trafford at the start of December.

Should the side fall short of expectations, United’s hierarchy would consider the possibility of ending Solskjaer’s reign and Rodgers is the clear favourite to take over.

And according to The Sun, the Northern Irishman has moved a step closer to the United job by going house-hunting in Cheshire, the area where many of the club’s players live.

The news that Rodgers is looking for a new family home will intensify speculation that he is preparing for the possibility of taking over the reins at Old Trafford before the end of the year.

However, United’s board have decided that Rodgers will be given no money to spend in the January transfer window and he must make do with the current squad who have underperformed this season.

United’s hierarchy are convinced that the squad are far better than their current sixth place standing suggests, particularly after spending over £100million to sign Raphael Varane, Jadon Sancho and Cristiano Ronaldo in the summer.
