Mauricio Pochettino has been appointed as the new Manchester United head coach, following the sacking of Michael Carrick.
Pochettino will begin the role on Wednesday, after taking charge of the USA's fixtures against Haiti, having signed a deal signed until the summer of 2029.
He is set to meet his new players and take training for the first time on Thursday and his first match in charge will be against Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday November 22, live on Sky Sports.
understands United have to pay around £7.4m to buy Pochettino out of his newly-signed contract with the USA.
In a statement announcing Pochettino's appointment, Man Utd highlighted the Argentinian's reputation for "high-intensity, attacking style of football, his dedication to building strong, cohesive teams and his outstanding record of developing individual players".
"Pochettino has consistently performed at the highest level of football across multiple leagues," the club added.
Carrick was sacked after overseeing the club's worst-ever start to a Premier League season, which has left United in the relegation zone after 10 matches.
Pochettino had previously been linked with the Man Utd job and, following a meeting between club chiefs Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox and owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe in Monaco on Wednesday to finalise the next steps, the 54-year-old is now set to return to the Premier League as United manager.
Pochettino is yet to win major silverware in England. He led Tottenham to a League Cup and Champions League final during his celebrated time in charge, before going on to win the French Cup and Ligue 1 during his one-and-a-half seasons at PSG.
