The out-of-work coach is linked with the Old Trafford job if the incoming investors lose faith in Ten Hag.<\/p>\n<p>United&#8217;s takeover saga finally looks set to come to an end. Sir Jim Ratcliffe is in line to buy a 25 per cent stake in the club worth around \u00a31.3billion.<\/p>\n<p>The INEOS founder, and the staff he brings in, will have a big say on footballing matters at the Red Devils. That includes the hiring and firing of managers, as well as player recruitment.<\/p>\n<p>The Sun says Potter would be one coach considered if Ten Hag is no longer deemed the answer in the Old Trafford dugout.
