The ex-Tottenham manager, who lost out on the Manchester United job to Erik ten Hag, is tipped for the sack this summer.

And L'Equipe suggest mid-table LaLiga club Bilbao have already made contact with the Argentinian.

Pochettino has never won over PSG chiefs amid their continuing failure to win the Champions League.

And even though they have comfortably regained the French title, big names like Zinedine Zidane are being linked with the boss job.

Poch remains highly-rated in Spain, though.

He built his managerial career at Espanyol and has often been linked with Barcelona.

Now Bilbao have reportedly signalled a strong interest.

Spaniard Marcelino Garcia Toral has guided them to a respectable eighth place so far this season.

But the pedigree of Poch would be seen as an upgrade.

He might take some luring, however.

Pochettino has openly expressed his keenness to return to the Premier League, including with Spurs.

PSG, meanwhile are said to be considering lining up French legend Zidane, who quit Real Madrid for a second time in May last year.
