Bookmakers move to shorten the odds of former Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino being appointed as the new manager of Newcastle United.

Bookmakers have moved to shorten the odds of Newcastle United appointing Mauricio Pochettino as their new manager.

In recent weeks, reports have indicated that the Magpies are on the verge of being taken over by a Saudi Arabia-based consortium, a development which could lead to the North-East outfit having substantial funds to use in the transfer market.

While it has been claimed that Steve Bruce will be given a chance to prove himself at St James' Park, speculation persists regarding the potential arrival of Pochettino.

Although Rafael Benitez and Massimiliano Allegri have also been linked with Newcastle, bookmakers have now priced Pochettino at 3/1, a significant drop from 14/1.

The Argentine has been out of work since November, when he was sacked by Tottenham Hotspur, but the 48-year-old has previously hinted that he is open to managing another Premier League club.
