Ligue 1: Pochettino To Join PSG’s Rivals
Sir Jim Ratcliffe, is considering sacking the Swiss manager and replacing him with Pochettino
Nice is looking to convince Mauricio Pochettino to replace Lucien Favre as their manager, ESPN reports.
Favre, 64, is under immense pressure after a poor start to the season.
Nice have won just two of their opening eight games.
The owner of the Ligue 1 side, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, is considering sacking the Swiss manager and replacing him with Pochettino.
However, it is unlikely Pochettino, 50, would prioritize a move back to France.
The former Paris Saint-Germain and Tottenham Hotspur manager is keener about a return to the Premier League.
Pochettino was sacked by PSG in July after 18 months at the club in which he guided them to the Ligue 1 title but failed to take them past the semifinals of the Champions League.
