Pochettino to take charge of Manchester United

London, Nov 13 (UNI) Argentine coach Mauricio Pochettino will become the head coach of Manchester United from November 18, the Premier League club announced on Friday.

Manchester United said it had reached an agreement with the U.S. Soccer Federation for Pochettino and his staff to be released after the conclusion of their current responsibilities with the U.S. men's national team.
The club said Pochettino is "renowned for his high-intensity, attacking style of football," as well
as "his dedication to building strong, cohesive teams" and "his outstanding record of developing individual players."
Pochettino began his coaching career with Espanyol in 2009 before moving on to Southampton, Tottenham Hotspur, Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea.
At Southampton, he guided the club to a then club-record Premier League points tally in 2014. During five full seasons at Tottenham, Pochettino established the club as regular UEFA Champions League contenders, securing qualification in four consecutive seasons and leading Tottenham to
their first Champions League final in 2019.

In 2021, Pochettino joined Paris Saint-Germain, before subsequently taking charge of Chelsea in 2023, according to Xinhua.

Most recently, Pochettino led the U.S. men's national team to the round of 16 at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The appointment marks a return to the Premier League for Pochettino, who will
succeed Michael Carrick as Manchester United head coach.
Pochettino's first Premier League match in charge is expected to come on November 22, when Manchester United travel to face Liverpool.
