According to the view of beIN SPORTS presenter Richard Keys, Arsene Wenger would be a sensible replacement for Jose Mourinho at Manchester United. As per Express, Mourinho is the favourite with the bookies to be the next manager to lose their job in the top tier.
Prior to the Red Devils’ 0-2 win over Burnley at the Turf Moor on Sunday, with Romelu Lukaku bagging a brace, the future of Mourinho at the Old Trafford was a subject of discussion among Andy Gray, Paul Robinson and Keys. Keys suggested that Wenger would a good option.
Keys opined: “I’ll match and raise you Arsene Wenger. Let me put a bit of meat on the bone. Managed big players all of his life.

“He (Wenger) knows plenty about the English Premier League. He has won everything there is to win apart from the Champions League.”
Wenger left Arsenal at the end of the previous campaign after his reign of 22 years. The Frenchman is thoroughly accustomed to the Premier League and currently, he is without any club.
However, it would be a surprise to see Wenger at Manchester United after spending such a long time with the Gunners.
