Manchester United Appoints Mauricio Pochettino as New Manager
Manchester United has officially announced that Mauricio Pochettino will become their new manager starting November 18, following the dismissal of Michael Carrick amid the club’s struggle in the Premier League’s relegation zone. Pochettino has signed a two-and-a-half-year contract that will keep him at the club until June 2029, according to sources reported by BBC Sport.
Carrick, who took over the reins temporarily after the club’s previous management change, expressed his gratitude, stating it was a “privilege” to lead “the club I love.” He conveyed his wishes for “nothing but success” for Manchester United as the team looks to regain its footing in the league.
As part of his transition, Pochettino will oversee the training and strategy for the upcoming two matches of the USA team. He is anticipated to address the media at 14:15 GMT.
