Mauricio Pochettino's dream was to land the Manchester United job, but it has turned out to be a living nightmare for the Paris Saint-Germain boss.
The Argentine was the clear frontrunner for the Old Trafford gig when Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was axed six months ago, but it appears the Red Devils have gone in another direction. Erik ten Hag has verbally agreed to be the next United manager as he is set to leave Ajax at the end of the season, and will sign a three-year deal.
The Athletic claims that senior officials at United were impressed with what Pochettino offered but it was ultimately Ten Hag's ability to win silverware that gave him the edge over the former Tottenham head coach.
