Former Manchester United captain Gary Neville has said that he would prefer Mauricio Pochettino to be appointed the club's new head coach over Erik ten Hag.
Ten Hag is believed to have held an interview with the Red Devils earlier this week, with the Ajax manager emerging as the favourite to replace Ralf Rangnick at Old Trafford.
However, Pochettino is still believed to be firmly in the picture for the position, with the Argentine likely to leave Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the 2021-22 campaign.
Neville has revealed that he would choose Pochettino, who has experience of working in the Premier League following his time at Southampton and Tottenham Hotspur, over the current favourite Ten Hag.
"Personally I would go for Pochettino but Ten Hag is the massive favourite of United fans to take the club forward. That's if it is a clear choice between the two," Neville wrote on Twitter.
The former Man United defender has also claimed that the 20-time English champions could make an announcement on their new head coach "within a week or so".
