Mick Martin believes Newcastle United should appoint Mauricio Pochettino as their next manager

Former Newcastle United captain Mick Martin believes Mauricio Pochettino could be an ideal choice to manage the Magpies following the change in ownership.

The Magpies are on the verge of a £300m takeover from PCP Capital Partners – backed by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund and an announcement could be made by the end of the month.

Amidst this, there has been the talk of the Magpies potentially changing their head coach ahead of next season and former boss Rafael Benitez, currently with Dalian Yifang, has been fancied to return to the dugout.
