Laurent Blanc has been off managerial duties since leaving PSG in 2016 but could be tempted back into management now that Manchester United are looking for a manager to take over the reigns at the end of the season.

Blanc has won numerous trophies both as a player and as a manager. The French had a terrific time managing French side Bordeaux, winning domestic titles and the coveted French Ligue 1 title.

He had a successful three-year spell at PSG, winning 11 trophies in the process before leaving the French capital. The 1998 World Cup winner is currently unattached to any club hence he could jump on the opportunity to get back into management by taking over the reigns at Old Trafford.

'Le Presidente' finished his career at Old Trafford, winning one Premier Leaugue title in the process. Despite lack of managerial experience in the English Premier League, Laurent Blanc has valuable experience as a player. He therefore understands Manchester United philosophy as he played under the legendary Scot Sir Alex Ferguson.
