Manchester United chiefs are eyeing former Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane as a replacement for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Pressure is increasing on Solskjaer with United sixth in the league after a 5-0 thrashing at home by Liverpool, as well as a comprehensive 2-0 defeat by Manchester City.
The Sunday Times says United are working to persuade Zidane to replace the Norwegian.
Zidane, 49, is currently without a club having stepped down from Real Madrid for a second time at the end of last season.
The Frenchman's record at Real Madrid is as impressive as it gets, winning three Champions Leagues and two LaLiga titles as a coach during his two spells.
It's said though that he is not convinced whether the United job would be the right one for him to take.
Mauricio Pochettino is reportedly eyeing a return to the Premier League.
Now in Paris, the South American is blessed with managing a squad that is bursting with attacking talent, including Neymar Jnr, Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi.
However, it would appear that managing some of the sport’s biggest offensive threats is not something Pochettino is too keen to continue doing following suggestions he would like to one day soon return to England’s top-flight.
Of course, it goes without saying, links have naturally been drawn to succeeding Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at Manchester United.
Although we understand that Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers has already spoken with Manchester United and agreed to take over from the Norwegian, the Red Devils will surely find themselves tempted by the impending availability of Pochettino.
