Pochettino is understood to be interested in taking charge of United, and is said to be unhappy with his current situation at PSG.

United are now looking for an interim appointment to see them through for the rest of the season with former Barcelona head coach Ernesto Valverde and ex-Lyon boss Rudi Garcia both contacted.
