EPL: Pochettino wants Manchester United to sign £130m striker

Mauricio Pochettino has told Manchester United hierarchy to sign Tottenham striker, Harry Kane as he prepares to take over at Old Trafford at the end of the season, according to the Telegraph.

Pochettino has the backing of several members of Manchester United's squad to take over from Ralf Rangnick this summer, according to reports in England.

PSG have already lined up former Real Madrid manager, Zinedine Zidane as the replacement for Pochettino, who has been heavily linked with United.

Meanwhile, Harry Kane came close to joining Manchester City last summer but Pep Guardiola's side could not agree a deal with Tottenham.

City were, however, willing to spend £130 million on the England captain.

Kane, 28, thrived under Pochettino at Spurs and The Telegraph reports that the Argentine wants United to make a move for the striker.

Kane is very clear on his decision to leave Tottenham in his quest to win trophies but has been buoyed by the arrival of Antonio Conte at the north London club.

Pochettino, meanwhile, admits he is in the dark over his future at PSG.

When asked about the possibility of Zidane replacing him at PSG, Pochettino told Cadena SER this week: "I don't know, it's not up to me to decide..."
