Manchester United rejected the chance to appoint Graham Potter as their new manager due to his lack of Champions League experience, it can be revealed.
United were on the lookout for a new boss after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was sacked last November, and Ralf Rangnick took on the role on a interim basis before Erik ten Hag was appointed as the club's new manager in April.
New Chelsea boss Potter was on the shortlist to take the reigns at Old Trafford, but he was turned down due to his inexperience in Europe, despite the fact ten Hag had never worked in the Premier League before.
