England captain Harry Kane has backed Mauricio Pochettino to become a success at Manchester United if he is appointed as the club’s next manager.
The Bayern Munich striker described Pochettino as a “fantastic manager”, saying the Premier League side would benefit from his experience.
Manchester United have reportedly reached an initial agreement with Pochettino, who currently manages the United States national team.
The Old Trafford club are expected to part ways with Michael Carrick during the international break following their worst-ever start to a Premier League season.
When asked about Pochettino’s potential move to Man United on Wednesday, Kane said at his pre-match press conference ahead of England’s Nations League clash with Croatia on Thursday, “Obviously a fantastic coach, he’s managed the biggest clubs in the world. From my point of view.
“We will have to wait and see what happens, but I know he’s a great guy and also a fantastic manager.”
Pochettino coached Kane during their time together at Tottenham Hotspur.
