Mauricio Pochettino is among the candidates to replace Michael Carrick at Manchester United

Manchester United is considering a change of coach in the face of the delicate sporting situation the team is going through in the Premier League. In this context, Mauricio Pochettino emerged as one of the alternatives to take the place of Michael Carrick, whose continuity would be close to coming to an end

.

The Argentine technical director is part of the short list of candidates evaluated by the management of Old Trafford. His possible contract would have an economic condition that would facilitate negotiations: a termination clause of 10 million euros in his link with the United States selection

.

The figure would be acceptable for the English institution and would allow the coach to advance even during the international break.

Eddie Howe and Julian Nagelsmann are also in the folder

.

Pochettino is not the only name that appears in the Manchester United options. The list also includes Eddie Howe and Julian Nagelsmann, two coaches who are currently without a team after their respective departures from Newcastle and the German national team

.

In the case of Howe, there is an additional economic constraint: due to the current agreements with Newcastle, Manchester United should pay compensation of close to three million euros if it decides to

hire him.

The future of Michael Carrick, increasingly compromised

The leadership of the Red Devils would plan to move forward with a meeting in Monaco to define Carrick's situation and then resolve who will take on the challenge of leading the team

.

The objective is to reverse the difficult football present and improve the performance of a squad that needs results to leave the compromised zone of

the standings.

Manchester United's next match will be against Liverpool, on November 22, in a game that could mark a turning point for the team. Meanwhile, Pochettino appears as one of the main candidates to take office
