Manchester United have appointed Mauricio Pochettino as their new manager, with the Argentine set to replace Michael Carrick at Old Trafford.
Deal details
According to The Athletic, United paid $10 million in compensation to the US Soccer Federation because of Pochettino's contract there. The report says he is expected to sign a deal until the summer of 2029.
What comes next
United's first match after the international break is against Liverpool, with Pochettino due to be in charge for that fixture.
Pochettino has managed Tottenham and Chelsea in the Premier League. His trophies came at Paris Saint-Germain, where he won the Super Cup, the French Cup and Ligue 1, but he did not add to that haul in his second season.
United are 18th in the Premier League after one win in 10 league matches and are in the relegation zone.
