Manchester United have confirmed the appointment of Mauricio Pochettino as their new head coach, with the Argentine set to take charge of the Premier League club from November 18.
The club announced the appointment in a statement on Friday, confirming that an agreement had been reached with the United States Soccer Federation for Pochettino and his backroom staff to leave their roles with the US men’s national team.
“Mauricio Pochettino has agreed to become the Manchester United men’s head coach from 18 November.
“The club has reached an agreement with the U.S. Soccer Federation for Mauricio and his staff to be released after the conclusion of their responsibilities with the U.S. Men’s National Team,” the statement read.
Pochettino replaces Michael Carrick, who was dismissed on Thursday following Manchester United’s disappointing start to the campaign.
The Red Devils are currently 18th in the Premier League table as the competition pauses for the November international break, having recorded just one victory.
The appointment marks a new chapter for United as they seek to improve their league position and revive their season under the former Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea manager.
