OPA WIRE, Nov 13 (OPA) — Mauricio Pochettino broke his silence regarding his new role as Manchester United manager during a scheduled press conference for the United States men's national team. The official confirmation emerged earlier in the day, yet the spotlight remained heavily fixed on his impending transition to Old Trafford.

Pochettino will not officially link up with the Premier League club until the conclusion of the current international break. Until then, his immediate attention stays locked on the national side's upcoming schedule.

The press conference was originally convened to preview the United States' match against Haiti. The fixture marks the first leg of their Concacaf Nations League quarter-final.

Despite the massive club development overshadowing the international camp, federation officials confirmed Pochettino will complete his scheduled commitments with the USMNT. Further details regarding his coaching staff and formal unveiling at Manchester United are expected once the international window closes.
