Boehly Hijack? Chelsea Owner Tries to Snatch United’s Top Managerial Target
The managerial saga at Manchester United has taken yet another dramatic twist — and now Chelsea owner Todd Boehly has thrown himself into the chaos.
With United preparing to cut ties with Ruben Amorim after a rocky spell, INEOS had already lined up a 67-year-old German coaching mastermind as the prime candidate to take over at Old Trafford. But in a stunning move, Boehly has reportedly approached the veteran manager with an improved offer, determined to derail United’s plans.
“There’s no way I’ll sit back and watch Manchester United sign such a top-class coach with a winning mentality. I’ve already approached him with an improved offer,” Boehly allegedly told close sources.
A High-Stakes Tug of War
The revelation has sent shockwaves through Manchester United’s hierarchy. INEOS had been quietly working for weeks to secure the German tactician, whose world-class CV includes domestic and European success. United view him as the man to restore structure, identity, and winning culture.
Chelsea, however, see him as the key to finally stabilizing Boehly’s turbulent project — and are ready to outbid their rivals to make it happen.
United Fans Furious
The news has triggered outrage among United supporters, who fear the club could repeat past mistakes by hesitating while rivals pounce.
Fan reactions on social media summed up the mood:
- “If we let Chelsea steal him, it’s over for us.”
- “INEOS must stop sleeping. Act fast before Boehly embarrasses us again.”
- “We can’t afford another disaster after Amorim. Bring him in at all costs!”
What Happens Next?
The next few days will be crucial. Both clubs are preparing advanced talks with the manager, and whichever side moves fastest could secure his commitment. For INEOS, losing him would be seen as a humiliating setback in their rebuild.
Chelsea, meanwhile, are desperate to make a statement of intent after another inconsistent season. Boehly’s bold move shows just how determined he is to block United’s revival.
⚠️ The message is clear: INEOS must act now — or risk watching Chelsea steal their top managerial target.
