{"id":2267,"section":"sports","section_label":"Sports","url":"https://www.brokenews.co/sports/2267","headline":"Pochettino linked to Manchester United as Carrick's job wobbles","dek":"The USMNT coach is reportedly open to a Premier League return with United sitting 18th after a 4-4 draw with Aston Villa.","body":"Mauricio Pochettino is once again at the center of a Manchester United managerial rumor, and this time it is reportedly his own camp fueling it. Multiple reports from Monday name him a leading candidate to replace Michael Carrick, who is said to be nearing the end of his first full season in charge at Old Trafford.\n\nUnited's situation has gotten messy. The club sits 18th in the Premier League table with just one win from their opening 10 matches, and a chaotic 4-4 draw with Aston Villa appears to have pushed the hierarchy toward considering a change during the international break. Pochettino, who previously managed Tottenham and Chelsea in England, is reportedly willing to step into the role if it opens up.\n\nFor now, Pochettino remains the USMNT head coach, a job he was hired for in 2024 and rehired for again in August. His profile has always made him a target for outside interest, and he and those around him are reportedly content to let the speculation play out rather than shut it down. Nothing has been decided on either side, and Carrick's status at United remains unresolved heading into the break.","published_at":"2026-11-11T23:33:22.872608+00:00","source_count":4,"written_from":[{"outlet":"New York Post","publisher":"New York Post","title":"USMNT star opens up about Mauricio Pochettino-Manchester United rumors","url":"https://nypost.com/2026/11/10/sports/usmnts-antonee-robinson-reacts-to-mauricio-pochettino-man-united-rumors/"},{"outlet":"Fox Sports","publisher":"Fox Sports","title":"Why Would Mauricio Pochettino Leave The U.S. For Manchester United?","url":"https://www.foxsports.com/stories/soccer/why-would-mauricio-pochettino-leave-u-s-manchester-united"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Ferguson's preferred candidate?
