Mauricio Pochettino has landed in Manchester ahead of Paris Saint-Germain’s Champions League clash with City on Wednesday night..

The Argentine has heavily been linked with the Manchester United hotseat since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s sacking and has arrived in the city for the Ligue 1 giants’ European clash.

Pochettino waved to the cameras as he and his PSG team touched down at Manchester Airport on Tuesday.

United, for now, have appointed Michael Carrick as their caretaker boss, and their search for a permanent replacement for club legend Solskjaer is underway.

Sportsmail revealed on Monday that Pochettino is interested in taking up the United vacancy this season.

It’s understood that Pochettino is prepared to leave PSG now because he is unhappy in the French capital.

The former Tottenham boss is living in a hotel while his family remain in London, and is said to be frustrated at managing a dressing-room with big egos like Lionel Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe.

Pochettino was heavily linked with the United job when Solskjaer replaced Jose Mourinho in December 2018 and is still admired by the Old Trafford hierarchy.
