Manchester United have seemingly found a successor to Michael Carrick.

Following a poor start to the season, the Red Devils' hierarchy pulled the ripcord on Thursday.

Just one day after parting company, a successor appears to have been found in Mauricio Pochettino. The Argentine is reportedly set to sign a contract running until the summer of 2029 as early as Friday.

Currently still US national team coach

There has not yet been an official announcement, but one could follow as soon as Friday. Pochettino's first match on the United touchline would likely be the Premier League clash with Liverpool after the international break.

The 54-year-old is currently still serving as head coach of the United States national team.

Pochettino previously spent a year as head coach of Chelsea. His managerial CV also includes spells at PSG, Tottenham Hotspur, and Southampton.
