Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Manchester United has reached a preliminary verbal agreement with Argentine coach Mauricio Pochettino on personal terms to take over as the club’s head coach in the near future.

Romano explained on his account on the X platform that negotiations are ongoing with the US Soccer Federation to reach an agreement that would allow Pochettino to leave his current position. He noted that a $10 million release clause in his contract could potentially be activated.

He added that the next step will be to complete the official procedures between all parties, paving the way for the Argentine coach’s move to Manchester United.
