Stam in at Man Utd?

by Denver Royal » 31 Oct 2018 13:09

Daily Mirror reports...

Manchester United legend Jaap Stam is eyeing up Jose Mourinho's job.

Mourinho has endured a struggling start to the Premier League season with United languishing in eighth place. The Red Devils have suffered defeats to Tottenham , Watford , West Ham in the league and were knocked out of the Carabao Cup by Derby. As a result Mourinho's tenure at Old Trafford has been under fire - although there is the potential he will leave of his own volition with Real Madrid reportedly keen.

And one man who would relish a place in Mourinho's dug out is former defender Stam - whose last managerial role was at Reading. Jaap Stam was a Manchester United legend and member of the Treble winning side.
Stam told Voetbal Primeur : "I hope to work sometime for an absolute top club. It should be no surprise that Manchester United are a dream club for me. "That was the situation during my playing career, and it is still the case."

The Dutchman played 127 times for the Red Devils between 1998 and 2001, winning the Premier League in each of his three seasons at the club.Stam also lifted the FA Cup and Champions League in 1999 as he was part of Sir Alex Ferguson's famous Treble side. He went on to play for Lazio, AC Milan and Ajax before turning to coaching.
Stam worked as an assistant manager at PEC Zwolle, before moving to Dutch colossus Ajax - where he was assistant for the first team and youth set-up. Stam spent two years as Reading boss, his only first team manager role so far.

Stam said: "At the moment my main criterion is to find a club with ambition. It could be in England, Holland or any country."

If he wants to manage a top club he'll need a thicker skin than he showed here. If he can't handle a bit of unrest from Reading fans then he'd really struggle at a big club.

Yep plus he simply doesn’t have the managerial pedigree for a top club.
