Kosicke said: “Even Chelsea and Manchester United inquired, although Jurgen had clearly stated that he would not coach any other club in England. 

"These inquiries keep coming. He's extremely happy with what he's achieved. And it's still wonderful to go down in history as one of the few coaches who only managed three clubs and were never fired."

Per Sky Sports, Man United and Chelsea both deny such contact was made.
