## Summary

Mauricio Pochettino is reportedly the leading candidate to replace Michael Carrick as Manchester United manager, putting his role as United States men’s national team coach in doubt. United are considering a change after a poor start to the Premier League season, with results leaving the club close to the relegation zone.

The report says discussions about United’s managerial position are continuing over the next few days. Pochettino, 54, extended his US Soccer contract in August through 2030 after leading the team to the World Cup round of 16; it reportedly includes a $10 million (£7.4 million) release clause. He has previously managed Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain.
