Manchester United's owners are pulling back from plans to make Ole Gunnar Solskjaer permanent manager.

ESPN says Mauricio Pochettino remains among their priorities, particularly given how he has masterminded Tottenham's Premier League title charge this season.

Another man in the frame to take over is Juventus' Massimiliano Allegri.

Allegri's stock is at an all-time high with his Old Lady side pushing hard for another Serie A title.

And after defeat to PSG, whether Solskjaer can beat both the Italian, and Pochettino, to the United job full-time remains to be seen.
