There is speculation at Old Trafford that Ole-Gunnar Solskjaer may be fired. In fact, according to 'The Mirror', Ed Woodward is reportedly willing to dispense with the manager if he sees United stagnating.
The situation is different at the Etihad Stadium, a few kilometres away. City does not know what will become of Guardiola. If they do not decide to renew, they will have to look for a coach.
And both teams reportedly have set their sights on the same man, explains the British newspaper. Mauricio Pochettino is reportedly the favorite of United and City for the position of coach.
In fact, after the 1-6 Tottenham defeat, the English press said that United contacted Pochettino to ask if he would take charge at United. An offer that seems to remain on the table.
Meanwhile, Pochettino is still without a team. Since he left Tottenham, he has not taken over the reins of any club.
The coach said recently that he has recharged his batteries and would be willing to return to the Premier League. Now it remains to be seen whether, as 'The Mirror' says, either of the two Manchester clubs will make a firm offer to Pochettino, the most desirable man in Mancunian territory.
