Pochettino to hold talks with Nice

According to Get French Football News, the former PSG manager is eyeing a return to management after he left PSG this past summer. Pochettino is set to meet with Nice to discuss a possible move if they decide to part ways with current coach Lucien Favre.

Favre's position is in danger following a string of poor results this season.

Favre was hired in the summer to replace Christophe Galtier, who went on to replace the Argentine at PSG. Favre's team have picked up just two wins this season in the French Ligue 1 and currently lie 13th, just two points above the relegation zone.

Nice suffered a frustrating 1-0 defeat to Angers this past weekend, a result that is said to have increased pressure on the former Borussia Dortmund manager, who is in his second spell at the club.

Pochettino arrived midway through the 2020/2021 season to his former side. He left the French giants with a league title, a feat most fans and pundits said was missing on his CV.
