While his adventure with PSG seems to have a very specific expiry date, Mauricio Pochettino can be reassured by thinking about the rest. Manchester United are still dreaming of welcoming him next summer.
PSG thought they had put an end to the upheavals on their sidelines by appointing Mauricio Pochettino in January 2020. After the volcanic Thomas Tuchel, place for the pragmatic Argentine, who had already passed through the club as a player and who had shown that he knew how to lead a long-term project on the side of Tottenham. But now, a year later, it is certain that he will not go beyond his first full season at Paris Saint-Germain, as we revealed to you yesterday.
The fault with an environment which does not please him much, with sawtooth results, with fresh relations with Leonardo and also with desires to return to England. Barely 4 months after his arrival, a first rumor arose of a possible comeback to Tottenham. Then the dismissal of Solksjaer at Manchester United quickly reinstalled him on the front pages of the English press.
Always the big favorite
Considered the big favorite to take over Manchester United, Mauricio Pochettino would have been delighted to go there immediately, but PSG said no, more for lack of an alternative than a desire to keep their Argentine coach. Still, the desire for Manchester United is still strong, despite the rather convincing debut of Ralf Rangnick in this position.
As reported by DailyMirror, Manchester United is still determined to welcome the 49-year-old coach, and confidence is in order. With a disillusioned PSG on his case, even before the decisive matches of the Champions League, everything is in place for a smooth arrival during the off-season. Despite his mixed record in Paris, Pochettino keeps a hellish rating in England, where his stints at Southampton and Tottenham marked the spirits.
