Mauricio is ready to accept the Red Devils offer.

Mauricio Pochettino is ready to accept an offer from the club from Old Trafford to become their next manager.

The Red Devils started discussions with the Argentinian with him potentially replacing Michael Carrick, who is expected to be dismissed in the next 2 days.

Once Michael’s future is clarified, Mauricio wants to become Manchester United head coach.

US Soccer officials are expecting an official approach from the Red Devils and are already preparing for the scenario of Pochettino leaving now to join Man United.

The ex-Spurs and Chelsea manager wants to remain respectful to his current job and will wait for the Red Devils to make their approach.

Manchester United would need to pay $ 10 million to release Mauricio from his deal, which he only inked this summer.

The American national team has a 2-legged Concacaf Nations League ¼ finals vs. Haiti in the upcoming days.

With confidence in a succession plan, Mauricio may not be in charge of US Soccer for those matches.

Pochettino wants to lead the Red Devils, and he will almost certainly accept the opportunity when it is formally offered.
