United States men's national team head coach Mauricio Pochettino has reportedly held discussions with Italian Serie A club AC Milan about their vacant head coaching position, according to multiple reports.

The talks between Pochettino and Milan officials occurred ahead of the upcoming World Cup, where the Argentine manager is set to lead the US national team. Italian journalist Nicolò Schira was first to report the news of the discussions between Pochettino and the Italian club.

The timing of these reported meetings comes as Milan seeks a new head coach and the US prepares for World Cup competition. Pochettino's involvement with Milan represents broader interest in his coaching services beyond his current role with the American national team.

The US men's national team is scheduled to open their World Cup camp following the squad announcement on Tuesday. A US Soccer CEO has acknowledged that Pochettino has drawn interest from other clubs, though no official statements have been made regarding any potential move.

Pochettino, who previously managed clubs including Tottenham Hotspur, Paris Saint-Germain, and Chelsea, was appointed as USMNT head coach earlier this year. The reported discussions with Milan add uncertainty to his future with the American national team program ahead of the World Cup tournament.
