Manchester City Fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter, which relays reports that claims Mauricio Pochettino would prefer to go to the Etihad should the opportunity arise.

While the season has only just begun, murmurings of  Pochettino’s name are already growing louder with the Argentine still out of work following his sacking from Spurs last November.

The Argentine was sacked by Spurs almost a year ago has been linked with a number of positions, but the 48-year-old is yet to commit to a new club.

Ian McGarry speaking on a recent episode of The Transfer Window podcast, claimed that he had ‘information’ as to where Pochettino may be looking for his next job.

He said: “My information, from speaking to people close to Mauricio Pochettino, is that he’d prefer to go to Manchester City than Manchester United as a project.

“Clearly, they are a club better equipped to give him the opportunity to achieve trophies, which he has yet to do in his managerial career. Whether or not that becomes the case or not, we shall find out, but certainly, with Pep Guardiola in the last year of his contract, that may well become an option for Pochettino – and one perhaps that’s worth waiting for.”
