England captain Harry Kane has sent a clear message to Manchester United over Mauricio Pochettino’s potential move to Old Trafford.
The Bayern Munich striker believes Man United will gain a ‘fantastic manager’ in Pochettino if he takes over from Michael Carrick.
Man United have already reached an initial agreement with Pochettino, who is the head coach of the United States national football team.
The Old Trafford club are expected to part ways with Carrick during the international break following the team’s worst-ever start to a Premier League season.
When asked about Pochettino’s potential move to Man United on Wednesday, Kane said at his pre-match press conference ahead of England’s Nations League clash with Croatia on Thursday, “Obviously a fantastic coach, he’s managed the biggest clubs in the world. From my point of view.
“We will have to wait and see what happens, but I know he’s a great guy and also a fantastic manager.”
Pochettino coached Kane during their time together at Tottenham Hotspur.
