Of all the names that tend to come up whenever the Manchester United manager's position comes up, Ralph Hasenhuttl is rarely mentioned.
But Paul Scholes and Glenn Hoddle believe the Southampton manager could be a perfect choice to take over at Old Trafford next season and work under old his old mentor Ralf Rangnick again.
Leipzig couldn't keep up the momentum the following campaign and after finishing sixth in the league and missing out on Champions League qualification, Hasenhuttl left.
"When we were watching the clip I said to Paul would that not be a good fit?" Hoddle said.
"If they’ve worked so close together, if Rangnick is going to be a sporting director eventually, that works. Southampton would want to keep him, of course they would as he’s doing an excellent job there. But if he wanted it, that would make sense."
"It's not something that’s really crossed my mind, but watching that interview, there’s a closeness between them. He was the right choice at the right time at Leipzig, did brilliantly and I've always liked him.
"I’ve always thought the football he’s played at Southampton, it’s not the best squad, has worked and his teams have been good to watch he comes across really well.
"This [going to United] would be a different kind of pressure, people around this club and fans especially are thinking more about Mauricio Pochettino or Antonio Conte, people who have been at the big clubs. But the more I think about it, I don't think it’d be a bad thing, the way he goes about his business looks good."
