The Argentinean head coach appears to be the Red Devils' top choice to become Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's full-time successor in the summer, when interim manager Ralf Rangnick turns into a consultant for the club.

Sources close to the star striker suggest that he would love to work with Pochettino again after five successful years together at Tottenham.

Although a lot needs to be done for that reunion to come into fruition, it is believed that it could all work out if the Manchester giants move fast.

Rivals Manchester City tried to sign the England captain in the summer and made a £130million offer to Spurs, which was rejected.

Therefore, another bid from City can't be ruled out during the next summer transfer window.

Plus, Tottenham have shown strong unwillingness to let their prized asset leave north London.

However, United's transfer business could also be dictated by Cristiano Ronaldo's future.

Ronaldo has endured a mixed return to Old Trafford and has been linked with a move away should United fail to secure Champions League football for next season.

If the five-time Ballon d'Or winner departs from Manchester then that could clear the way for a sensational swoop involving Kane.
