U.S. Soccer is reportedly targeting Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola as a potential replacement for Mauricio Pochettino, should the Argentine coach leave to take over at Manchester United, according to recent reports. The move comes as Pochettino has been linked with a transfer to Old Trafford, where he is considered the main candidate to succeed under-pressure manager Michael Carrick.

U.S. Soccer is reportedly considering Guardiola as one of their top targets to maintain the progress made under Pochettino's leadership. The American football federation is said to be making an ambitious appointment to keep the national team on an upward trajectory. Guardiola, currently without a club following his departure from Manchester City, is widely regarded as one of the most accomplished managers in modern football, having enjoyed successful stints at Barcelona, Bayern Munich, and Manchester City, where he established himself as a tactical innovator.
