The latest news on Mauricio Pochettino, the former manager of Southampton, Tottenham Hotspur, and Paris Saint-Germain, revolves around his future plans in football management.
Pochettino, who left Chelsea FC by mutual consent in May 2024, is being speculated as a potential candidate to replace Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag, should the latter be sacked. The Argentine has previously ruled himself out of the role, but his availability following his exit from Chelsea has piqued the interest of the Old Trafford club.
Additionally, Pochettino is also being considered as a contender to succeed Gareth Southgate as the next England manager after the upcoming European Championship. The Argentina native, who captained his country 20 times, is held in high regard for his ability to improve young players, which could be a valuable asset for any club or national team.
In other news, Pochettino has recently spoken out about his experiences at Chelsea, addressing the challenges he faced and hinting at a lack of alignment with the club’s hierarchy. He emphasized the need to build a genuine relationship with Chelsea fans, acknowledging the difficulty of connecting with them due to his past with Tottenham.
The 52-year-old’s future plans remain unclear, but speculation continues to mount around his next possible managerial role.
