Mauricio Pochettino is the leading candidate to succeed Michael Carrick as Manchester United manager, according to the article, despite renewing his contract months ago to take charge of the United States national team. If he takes the job, he will face the challenge of getting the team out of the relegation zone after managing just one league win this season, as well as rebuilding the squad.
The article says United need changes in defence and attacking options, and puts forward five names Pochettino could target from his former clubs: Conor Gallagher, Cole Palmer and Levi Colwill from Chelsea, and Richarlison and Malo Gusto from Tottenham. These remain potential targets, not confirmed signings.
The article notes that Palmer could be expensive, while Tottenham did not include Richarlison in their 25-man Premier League squad, according to the text. It also says Gusto wants assurances about his future after his appearances declined, and that Colwill had a difficult start to the season.
