Mauricio Pochettino would be a perfect candidate to replace Ole Gunnar Solskjær at Man United, and he is more than willing to return to the Premier League.
He said he wouldn’t think twice if there’s an opportunity available to him, especially after being continuously linked with Red Devils for years, even after he was sacked by Spurs back in November last year.
“I would love to work in the Premier League,” he said to Sky Sports podcast.
“It’s going to be difficult I know and for now it’s a moment to wait and we’ll see what happens. It’s a moment of recovery, to think about yourself a little bit, and to be ready because in football always something can happen and you need to be ready.
“I’m ready and waiting for a new challenge. I have the belief and confidence that the next challenge will be fantastic.”
However, Pochettino remained proud of his career at Spurs, despite the five-year relationship ended abruptly.
“Everything I had to do was very scary in those moments,” he said. “To destroy White Hart Lane and to build a new stadium, to play at Wembley and Milton Keynes, only football people know how difficult it was to deal with these situations.
“To apply a new philosophy and new ideas was very tough but I feel very proud with the success we had and to take Tottenham to a different level. To play in the Champions League for three or four years and finish above Arsenal many times was a great legacy for us.
“To win a title would be a great reward but for us that is the legacy, to have the club and the stadium at Tottenham. That is more than winning titles.”
If Ole failed to help United to qualify for the Champions League next season, Pochettino is available for United and he could be the best man to replace the Norwegian.
