Mauricio Pochettino is set to have talks with Ligue 1 club Nice in the coming days.

The Argentine has not worked since departing Paris Saint-Germain in the summer.

The ex-Tottenham boss was overlooked by Chelsea to take over from Thomas Tuchel, as the West Londoners went for Graham Potter.

According to Foot Mercato, Pochettino is ready to talk with Nice about their soon to be vacant managerial position.

The Ligue 1 club are close to sacking Lucien Favre, who has them languishing in 13th place in the table at present.

Pochettino may have some interest in the Leicester City job, should the Premier League club sack Brendan Rodgers.
