Pochettino Ready to Accept Man Utd Offer to Replace Carrick
Managers·November 12, 2026
Mauricio Pochettino is ready to accept an offer from Manchester United to become the club's next head coach, according to the report. The move would see the former Tottenham and Chelsea boss take over from Michael Carrick, who is currently in charge at Old Trafford.
The report concerns Pochettino's willingness to agree terms, not a completed appointment. Neither club has confirmed the deal in the material available, and details such as contract length and salary have not been disclosed.
If the agreement goes through, it would mark a clear change of direction for United. Pochettino has a reputation for high-intensity, pressing football and experience of coaching in the Premier League, but how that style works at a club with United's expectations remains to be seen. Until either side makes an official announcement, treat this as a reported development rather than a confirmed appointment.
