Manchester United could appoint their next permanent manager before the end of the season.
There have been developments in United's process to settle on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's full-time successor and the club could secure an agreement well in advance of the summer transfer window's opening date of July 1.
Paris Saint-Germain coach Mauricio Pochettino and Erik ten Hag of Ajax remain the frontrunners to take over at United, who are believed to have informally sounded out Leicester coach Brendan Rodgers while Solskjaer was still in charge. Rodgers remains under consideration.
