The Manchester United hierarchy are reportedly split over appointing Mauricio Pochettino or Erik ten Hag as the club’s next manager.
United have formally begun their search for a new manager, who will step into the role when interim boss Ralf Rangnick moves into a consultancy position in the summer. Having so far failed to find the right man for the job since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in 2013, the club are taking their time over the next appointment.
Chief executive Richard Arnold, football director John Murtough and technical director Darren Fletcher are leading the search. The shortlist is understood to include Paris Saint-Germain manager Pochettino, Ajax’s Ten Hag, Sevilla’s Julen Lopetegui and Spain boss Luis Enrique.
