The Red Devils have been urged to turn to a man who has turned the Foxes into a formidable force if they decide to sack Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Alan Brazil has backed Leicester boss, Brendan Rodgers for the top job at Manchester United instead of ex-Tottenham tactician Mauricio Pochettino.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s position in the Old Trafford dugout has come under intense scrutiny in recent weeks.
United have slipped to 15th in the Premier League table after losing three of their opening six fixtures, with Crystal Palace, Tottenham and Arsenal all running out comfortable winners in Manchester.
A 2-1 defeat to Istanbul Basaksehir in a Champions League group stage clash in Turkey on Wednesday piled more pressure on Solskjaer, who refused to be drawn on speculation over his future post-Match conference .
Pochettino is thought to be the leading contender to become United’s next permanent manager, having been out of work since being sacked by Spurs in November 2019.
The Argentine has opened the door to a return to the Premier League, but Brazil thinks Rodgers would be a better fit for the Red Devils.
The Scottish head coach, who has also taken in spells at Swansea, Liverpool and Celtic, guided Leicester to a fifth-place finish in the top flight last season, and the ex-United forward would like to see him given the chance to manage at the very highest level once again.
