Mauricio Pochettino ‘lined up to replace Erik ten Hag at Man United’ following his Chelsea exit… two years after Argentine missed out on the Old Trafford job

Mauricio Pochettino is in the frame to take over as manager of Manchester United, according to a report.

The Argentine left his role as Chelsea manager after just a year in charge on Tuesday evening, with the club confirmed he had parted way via mutual consent.

Fans were split on the move, with some claiming he was leading the team in the right direction, while others suggested Chelsea‘s early season form was enough for a change being needed to lead the side forwards.

Though he again finds himself out of work, it’s possible that Pochettino won’t be away from the dugout for too long, and could be set to take charge of another Premier League side ahead of next season.

According to The Sun, the 52-year-old is in the frame for the top job at Manchester United ahead of next term, should current boss Erik ten Hag be relieved of his duties after the FA Cup final.
