I Won’t Be Borussia Dortmund’s Next Manager – LVG

Ex-Manchester United manager, Louis van Gaal has come out to rule out taking over at Borussia Dortmund. He, however, opened the door to a managerial return, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, it is simply unimaginable for him to take over at Borussia Dortmund because he is currently considering only national team positions.

His words, “No, that’s unimaginable for me [taking over at Dortmund]. I would only consider a position as coach of a national team.”

BvB decided to part company with Nuri Sahin earlier this week and now the German giants are on the lookout for his successor.

WOW.

Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.

Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.

Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.

The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992, beating Nottingham Forest 1–0 in the second to win that competition for the first time as well.
