Mauricio Pochettino will become the new coach of Manchester United after Michael Carrick. According to Atleti, the Premier League club is finalizing a deal with the current coach of the US national team. For the appointment of the Argentine, the Mancunians will have to pay a compensation of 8.9 million euros.
Manchester United may become the fourth English club in Pochettino's career. He previously managed Southampton, Tottenham, with whom he reached the Champions League final in 2019, and Chelsea.
Manchester United is currently ranked 18th in the Premier League and is in danger of relegation to the championship. Pochettino, if the appointment goes through, will have the task of keeping the club among the elite of English football.
