Manchester United are closing in on the appointment of Erik ten Hag with Joel Glazer favouring the Dutchman over Mauricio Pochettino, according to reports.
The Red Devils have been eyeing a new permanent manager for several months with Ralf Rangnick's interim spell coming to an end this summer. Ten Hag and Pochettino have emerged as the two frontrunners and there is a divide at Old Trafford as to who the best man for the job is.
Ten Hag has proven himself at Ajax and is ready for a new challenge whilst Pochettino has worked in the Premier League previously, making Tottenham more than the sum of their parts before his dismissal in 2019. Now at PSG the Argentine is struggling but retains supporters in the red half of Manchester.
