According to reports in France, PSG manager Mauricio Pochettino has now turned down interest from Manchester United. The Old Trafford giants had previously looked at Pochettino as a potential replacement for Ralf Ragnick.

However, it seems the PSG manager has his eyes on taking charge at the Santiago Bernabeu. Pochettino is reportedly more interested in the project at Los Blancos, as opposed to that in Old Trafford.

Manchester United keep hope alive

Despite the reports suggesting Pochettino may not be considering moving to Old Trafford, Manchester United executives are not set to give up hope to land the Argentine manager.

One thing is certain, if Pochettino fails to win the Champions League with PSG, there is a high chance he may be shown the exit door. However, that would not be the case with Manchester United.

Expectations at Old Trafford

At Manchester United, the expectations between themselves and the likes of PSG and Real Madrid are wide.

The Red Devils is like a soft landing for managers like Mauricio Pochettino. The goal would be to qualify for the Champions League and get to the knockout stages.

However, at Real Madrid and PSG, the goals and expectations would be much higher.

Conclusion

With that in mind, Manchester United believe Pochettino would rethink his decision, as their doors remain open for the time being.
