UK Back Pages: Mauricio Pochettino a Contender for Manchester United Job

Louis van Gaal is still the Manchester United manager, but you wouldn't always know it if you've been reading the British papers.

Jose Mourinho has been heavily linked with the position, but now, the Sun claims Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino has emerged as a "serious rival" for the top job at Old Trafford.

There is also managerial speculation in the Daily Star, this time concerning Chelsea.

It says Italian coach Antonio Conte is "top of the list" for them but also warns that the Blues will have to act fast if they want the former Juventus boss.

Elsewhere, a lot of coverage is given over to the ongoing row between fans and clubs over ticket prices.
