At Barca, Valverde won La Liga twice as well as the Copa del Rey. The report in The Guardian suggests that the 57-year-old has started sounding out potential players he could add to the Manchester United squad.

The Spanish coach is reportedly on a list of five potential candidates who could succeed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in the hot seat at Old Trafford.
