Manchester United are set to appoint a new permanent manager in the summer to succeed interim incumbent Ralf Rangnick, with a number of candidates being considered.
MEN Sport understands that the two leading candidates for the United job are Mauricio Pochettino and Erik ten Hag, with the former having been in the frame since before Jose Mourinho's tenure and the latter having come to prevalence more recently due to his Champions League exploits with Ajax.
There have been rumours of unrest between Pochettino and his current side Paris Saint-Germain and given the club's track record with managers who fail to meet their owners' high and exacting standards, it could spell the end of the Argentinian's time in the French capital if he is unable to deliver them an elusive Champions League crown this season.
