Duncan Castles claims Mauricio Pochettino is targeting the Manchester United job
Duncan Castles claims that Mauricio Pochettino wants to leave Tottenham but will remain in the Premier League.
Spurs have had a tough start to the campaign under the Argentine and recently lost 7-2 to Bayern Munich.
Tottenham have also been unable to get rid of certain players who wanted to leave in the summer. Three first-team stars are free agents at the end of the season and can leave for nothing.
Castles was speaking on the Transfer Window Podcast and claimed that someone close to Pochettino gave him the information. The journalist added that the Argentine was interested in moving to Manchester United (h/t Sun):
“The information I have from someone close to Pochettino is he has very much targeted a new job.
“In his head, he has made the decision he will be moving on from Tottenham Hotspur.
“And the club I’m the told he is targeting at his next job is Manchester United.”
United would be a terrible move for Pochettino
The club might be struggling at the moment, but Pochettino can get us out of this situation. This is more or less the same team that finished second in the Premier League in 2017 and reached the Champions League final too.
The Argentine does have to get things in shape but running away to United isn’t the right move either.
The Red Devils are in an even worse condition than we are and Pochettino would have to start the rebuilding cycle again at Old Trafford

Poch is one of the best in the world and we need him to stick around. Hopefully, we get the season back on track soon and the Argentine stays at Tottenham.
