Story summary

Mauricio Pochettino, the current manager of the US Men's National Team (USMNT), is expected to address his future with Manchester United this week, as the club considers a managerial change. Reports suggest that Omar Berrada, Manchester United’s chief executive, and Jason Wilcox, director of football, will recommend replacing interim manager Michael Carrick during a meeting with the Glazer family and minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe. Pochettino recently signed an extension through the 2030 World Cup but is now the favorite among bookmakers for the Manchester United job. The club has until Thursday to decide whether to trigger a £7m option in his contract, which would allow them to appoint him as their new manager.
