Pochettino closed the door of Old Trafford

Except for the unexpected twist, Pochettino He has only a few weeks left as PSG coach. The premature farewell to the Champions League caused injury and, despite the fact that the emir did not want to rush at the time, he decided to dismiss the Argentine at the end of the season, once the team was sealed the league. If there isn’t a lot of future in Paris, it looks like he won’t have it either at United, who have already agreed with his Ajax team -mate, Erik Ten Hag.

The Dutchman will sit on the bench at Old Trafford for the next three seasons. In the absence of a contract signature, he has generated the most consensus with a United chasing the stability it has lacked in all these years. Although Sir Alex Ferguson also spoke well Pochettino and that the flirtation between the club and the one from Santa Fe took place in December, PSG’s stumble in the Champions League played against him and reduced the credit.

United knew they had to start early, but they also didn’t have time to beat. throughout this season Pochettino has raised doubts about his ability to lead the complex challenge of returning a sleeping giant like the Manchester team to the elite, while Erik Ten Hag He showed his skills in a modern Ajax who, despite falling against the odds in the Champions League, once again amazed at a unique idea of ​​the game.

For Pochettino PSG have not had an easy experience. Arrived in January 2021 after the cessation of Tuchel and in tow until the end of May. The team was left for the first time in years without winning Ligue 1. This time it was almost sentenced, but the decomposition at the Santiago Bernabéu was very heavy. Almost rescuing his continuation at PSG, the Argentine is now also closing the door on a United he has dreamed of in the medium term.
