Neil Ashton of the Sun claims that it will cost £32m to pry Mauricio Pochettino away from Tottenham.

Tottenham were dumped out of the Carabao Cup by Colchester United, and have seen frailties at the back.
We gave away a 2-0 lead against Arsenal and repeated that at Olympiakos too. Newcastle beat us at home while we lost on penalties to Colchester.
The journalist claims that Manchester United will try to court Poch after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s struggle. United were linked with Pochettino when Louis van Gaal was sacked, and also after Jose Mourinho left the side (h/t Sun).

Dimitar Berbatov, Teddy Sheringham and Michael Carrick all moved from Spurs to United, and Daniel Levy had turned down an approach from Real Madrid for Pochettino too (h/t Sun).
