Get Guardian on GoogleMauricio Pochettino has reached a verbal agreement in principle to become the next head coach of Manchester United.
Sky Sports News issued the report on Wednesday with the move following Man United’s dismal Premier League start under Michael Carrick who sits near the relegation zone and is widely expected to be sacked after recent poor results.
Pochettino, who is currently the United States Men’s National Team (USMNT) coach, is under contract until 2030.
According to reports, the Argentine tactician would require the Red Devils to pay around £7.4-10 million in compensation plus staff release fees if the appointment proceeds.
