Manchester United appoint Pochettino as Argentine leaves US role

Mauricio Pochettino has agreed to take charge of Manchester United, leaving the United States national-team job, the Associated Press reported on Friday, November 13.

The Argentine is due to begin on November 18 under a two-and-a-half-year contract. His appointment follows Michael Carrick’s dismissal and comes with United in the Premier League relegation zone.

Pochettino is set to remain with the Americans for their two Nations League matches against Haiti before moving to Old Trafford. United’s next league assignment is at Liverpool.

The change brings an experienced Premier League manager back to England while opening a new coaching search for US Soccer.
