As per a report in Foot Mercato (via Le10Sport), Pochettino has put himself under more pressure at PSG. The former Tottenham manager does not want to continue at the club if he cannot win the Champions League.

The Argentine’s future at the club has been in the news for the past few months, but rumors intensified last month. Reports suggest the Ligue1 side are keen on replacing the manager regardless of what might be achieved this season.

Zinedine Zidane has been touted as his replacement despite the club confirming there were no talks held with the former Real Madrid manager. The Frenchman has been without a club since leaving Los Blancos last summer. Zidane has been linked with various clubs, including Manchester United and Juventus.

Mauricio Pochettino - from PSG to Manchester United?

Mauricio Pochettino was linked with the vacant Manchester United job after they sacked Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. The Red Devils were keen on the former Tottenham manager and had reportedly made moves to get him from the Ligue1 club in December 2021.

However, both PSG and the Argentine rejected the move as they did not want to derail their plans for the season. Speaking to the media regarding the Manchester Utd rumors, the manager had said:

However, Gary Neville believes the manager would jump at the chance of moving to Manchester United.

Reports suggest the Red Devils are still keeping tabs on the Argentine and would pounce for him if the French side part ways with Pochettino.
