MAURICIO POCHETTINO has been linked with a move to Manchester United.
Manchester United are apparently interested in signing Mauricio Pochettino at the end of the season, and the PSG boss appears willing to leave the French city. Ralf Rangnick is set to step down as head coach at the end of this season.
Officials at the United Nations are already making plans for the summer.
Rangnick hasn't had the best of luck so far, and it's unlikely that he'll be handed the job full-time.
Instead, he will join Old Trafford as a consultant, leaving the position of head coach unfilled.
Pochettino, who has been connected with the club on multiple occasions in the past, is believed to be the club's main priority once more.
PSG's manager has one of the most star-studded squads in the world at his disposal right now.
Man United is a football club based in Manchester, England.

The Ligue 1 title looked a foregone conclusion after signing Lionel Messi on a free transfer last year and keeping Kylian Mbappe out of Real Madrid's hands.
And it appears that will be the case, since PSG is presently 11 points clear at the top of the standings, despite losing Neymar to injury earlier in the season.
Despite Tottenham's domination in the league, Pochettino's position is in jeopardy.
The Champions League is the criterion by which all PSG managers are measured, and it appears that the former midfielder presently in the limelight will be no exception.
Pochettino is aware that an early exit from Europe could result in his dismissal, according to reports in France, and has warned those close to him that he does not expect to be at the club next season.
PSG was humiliated earlier this week when Nice knocked them out of the Coupe de France.
PSG were held to a goalless draw before losing on penalties despite fielding a formidable team that included Messi.
Pochettino said afterwards that the defeat could have an impact on his future at the conclusion of the season.

PSG takes on Real Madrid in the Champions League next week, and it's been suggested that a loss could result in the head coach's firing.
Zinedine Zidane, who has previously been connected to the position, is said to be waiting in the wings to take over if it becomes available.
Pochettino's current contract at the Parc des Princes is set to expire in 2023, after he exercised a one-year extension option following reports connecting him with a return to Tottenham in the summer.
During a lengthy process that saw a number of names linked to the post before Daniel Levy chose Nuno Espirito Santo, he was thought to be open to returning to Spurs.
