USA head coach, Mauricio Pochettino, is Manchester United’s top choice to replace Michael Carrick.
It is increasingly likely that Carrick will be fired this international break.
The 45-year-old’s job is on the line despite the team’s battling 4-4 draw with Aston Villa on Sunday.
The result means that United have recorded just two wins from 10 Premier League games this season.
