EDIN TERZIC is the shock name on Manchester United’s shortlist to replace Erik ten Hag.

German Terzic took Borussia Dortmund to the Champions League final last season before surprisingly quitting.

He has many admirers at Old Trafford and it would he a smart but unexpected move to go for him if they sack under-fire Ten Hag.

Terzic, 41, did his coaching badges in England, where he was friends with fellow United target Graham Potter, and then worked as Slaven Bilic’s No 2 at West Ham.

He rose to the top in Germany during two spells at Dortmund before he walked away in June.

United are currently reviewing Ten Hag’s position and have looked at the likes of Potter and Gareth Southgate, while former Chelsea and ex-Bayern Munich boss Thomas Tuchel has been on their radar.

The option of promoting club legend and current coach Ruud van Nistelrooy is also a possibility.

Terzic graduated from the FA’s  coaching course alongside former United players Nicky Butt and Nemanja Vidic in 2018.

United are 14th in the Prem and Ten Hag  is clinging on to his job after club chiefs held a SEVEN-HOUR summit in London last Tuesday to  discuss his future.

The Dutchman, 54, is having a short holiday and confident he will still be in charge for Saturday’s visit of Brentford.

But there has been no confirmation from the club yet on whether that will be the case.

Two current Prem bosses are also tipped to be in contention should the Red Devils call time on Ten Hag.
