United boss Louis van Gaal's future came under intense scrutiny at the start of year after a eight games without a win.
A 2-1 win over Swansea last weekend eased the pressure on the Dutchman but Jose Mourinho and Pep Guardiola have both been linked with the job at Old Trafford.
 
Blanc, who played for United between 2001 and 2003, has been manager of PSG since 2013, winning the Ligue 1 title and French League Cup twice and the French Cup once.
