Former Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino has been heavily linked with a return to the Premier League to join Manchester United - and now there is further fuel added to the flames.
The Argentine boss left Spurs last year and was replaced by Jose Mourinho, following a poor run of form that left the clubs Premier League and Champions League campaign under threat.
Pochettino remains extremely highly rated though and has long been tipped for a move to Old Trafford to join United, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer under pressure.
Now, further rumours are sure to be ignited after Pochettino was pictured with Manchester United's PR advisor Neil Ashton at Brentford's Championship clash with Leeds United.
Ashton, formerly of The Sun and the host of Sky Sport's Sunday Supplement, announced his exit from both companies to launch a PR firm, landing United as one his first major clients.
A key task of Ashton's is improving the relationship of chief executive Ed Woodward with disgruntled Manchester United fans, who have been vocal with their criticism towards him.
“[Woodward]’s a guy that absolutely loves Manchester United. I want to change perception of not only himself but the ownership of the club," he told the Guardian.
