Why Mauricio Pochettino Ready To Quit PSG Now And Become Manchester United Manager

 

 Mauricio Pochettino is set for a quick "YES" to Manchester United's call if they want him to replace Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as manager at Old Trafford.

Reports reveal that Pochettino would be prepared to quit Paris Saint-Germain and return to the Premier League after Solskjaer was axed on Sunday.

Manchester United parted ways with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on Sunday and there are already a few big names being linked with the vacant position at Old Trafford. 

United have put coach Michael Carrick in charge on a caretaker basis while they look to appoint an interim boss until the end of the season, suggesting that Solskjaer's permanent replacement may not be installed until the summer.

However, Eurosport learnt that Spurs former boss Pochettino is prepared to leave PSG now if United approach him because he is unhappy in the French capital.

Pochettino's dissatisfaction comes in from the fact that he still lives in a hotel, while his family remains in London, and the nightmare of dealing with big egos such as Lionel Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe at PSG, The Mail gathered.

The former Tottenham manager was heavily linked with the United job when Solskjaer replaced Jose Mourinho in December 2018 and is still admired by the Old Trafford hierarchy.

One interesting part is that the 49-year-old Argentine will be in town on Tuesday ahead of PSG's clash with Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday, although it's understood that United had still not made contact with him on Sunday night.
