Manchester United Does ‘Due Diligence’ on Pochettino Becoming Its Next Coach: AP Source
The club has made due diligence preparations as Carrick faces pressure after United fell to 18th in the Premier League, a source said.
- Manchester United is exploring a deal to replace manager Michael Carrick with United States coach Mauricio Pochettino, a source told The Associated Press on Wednesday.
- Following Sunday's 4-4 draw with Aston Villa, the 20-time English champion sits in the relegation zone with just one win from 10 games, marking the club's worst start in the modern era.
- Preparations to appoint Pochettino are a matter of "due diligence," a person with knowledge told The Associated Press, though no final decision has been made on Carrick's future.
- Reports in recent weeks indicate United is also considering Julian Nagelsmann, Eddie Howe, and Antonio Conte as alternative candidates to succeed Carrick.
- Although Pochettino is under contract with the United States through the 2030 World Cup, he previously managed Premier League clubs Southampton, Tottenham, and Chelsea.
