In Pictures: From Pochettino to Zidane - 10 managers tipped for vacant manager's job at Manchester United

Zinedine Zidane: He proved himself a master of moulding a star-studded squad into a team at Real Madrid where he won two La Liga titles and several Champions League trophies. He is just the sort of manager Manchester United need right now.

Roberto Martinez: The current Belgium national team manager has been rumoured with every high profile managerial role whenever they come available. He was linked with Barcelona until Xavi returned and now his name is doing the rounds with the vacant job at United.

Roy Keane: The club's former captain, Keane has managerial experience with Ipswich and Sunderland and could be the tough, no-nonsense character needed to turn things around at Old Trafford.

Graham Potter: His reputation has grown thanks to the free-flowing, attacking football style he has implemented at Brighton. But he may not be a big enough name to appease the fans.

Roberto Mancini: He is no doubt a class act and would be a success at Old Trafford. But, the current Italian national team coach was the former boss of Man City and United fans would never accept him in the hot seat.

David Moyes: He was given a chance at Old Trafford but it was not a fair one. Sacked after just 7 months in charge, the short stint damaged his reputation which he has since rebuilt thanks to a great job done at West Ham. He sure has unfinished business and given a proper crack of the whip he would create a good team.

Brendan Rodgers: The Leicester boss has proven he can handle the big time while at Liverpool and Celtic. The Foxes narrowly missed out on the Champions League for the past two seasons despite far inferior resources to the likes of Chelsea, Man City and Liverpool.

Erik ten Hag: Ajax are one of the form teams in Europe thanks to his astute leadership. The former Bayern Munich youth team coach would fit the attacking style demanded at Manchester United.

Luis Enrique: The Spain national team boss has lots of experience in getting the best out of a collection of talented players. He won the treble in his first season at Barcelona and has always spoken of his desire to one day coach in the English Premier League.

Mauricio Pochettino: The Argentine coach, currently at Paris Saint-Germain, is the favourite for the job at Old Trafford. But will he jump ship mid-season with the team leading by 12-points at the top of Ligue 1?
