Mauricio Pochettino was surprised by the decision of Manchester United authorities
In recent weeks, the main rival of the Hague was considered to be an Argentinean – still working with PSG – he was in talks with the Manchester United authorities, but ultimately the choice fell on the Hague – the coach of Ajax Amsterdam. Pochettino learned from the media about United’s decision. The club’s authorities were to inform him of their decision only after they had agreed on the terms of the contract with the Hague.
According to “The Athletic,” the Argentine was supposed to be surprised by the fact that he was convinced he would receive an offer from United. He even knew about life in Manchester, the structure of the club and the situation of the players. He even had to say how many players he would resign and how much it would cost to rebuild the team.
Interestingly, according to The Daily Mail, most of the Manchester United team would prefer Pochettino to be the coach, not this Hag.
