According to The Athletic’s David Ornstein, AS Monaco approached former Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino upon parting ways with Robert Moreno over the weekend, but the Argentine rejected their offer. He has been out of work since he left North London, and reuniting with Monaco sporting director Paul Mitchell who they worked together at Spurs and Southampton would have made sense. However, the Newcastle United managerial target wasn’t keen, and ex-Bayern Munich head coach Niko Kovac was appointed in the end. Juventus and Inter Milan have also been linked with Pochettino, and it remains to be seen what is on his mind.
