It is unclear why the pair are together this Thursday, but the sight of Mitchell in Manchester is bound to spark speculation given his connection to Mauricio Pochettino.

Current Paris Saint-Germain manager Pochettino worked with Mitchell at both Southampton and Tottenham.

Pochettino is one of the favourites to take over from Rangnick at Man United at the end of the season.

The Argentine is on a shortlist that also includes Ajax boss Erik ten Hag, Spain manager Luis Enrique, Inter Milan's Simeone Inzaghi and Bayern Munich's Julian Nagelsmann.
