Nicky Butt has urged Manchester United to "go all-out" to make Mauricio Pochettino their next permanent manager - despite a pair of his former teammates favouring a rival candidate.
Pochettino is regarded as one of two leading options to take over at Old Trafford this summer having impressed during five-and-a-half seasons at Tottenham before joining Paris Saint-Germain in January 2021. Ajax boss Erik ten Hag is viewed as his main competition for the role and underwent his interview with United chiefs last week.
Spain's Luis Enrique and Sevilla's Julen Lopetegui round off the club's four-manager shortlist but Roy Keane and Paul Scholes have thrown their weight behind a fifth option: Atletico Madrid's Diego Simeone. Speaking in February, Keane described Simeone as "the right kind of character" for the job and pointed out he has done "great things" in the Spanish capital.
