Sevilla boss Julen Lopetegui suggests that he has no interest in taking the Manchester United job in the summer.

Julen Lopetegui has insisted that he will remain as manager of Sevilla for the 2022-23 campaign.

The former Real Madrid and Spain boss has taken Sevilla into second place in La Liga this season, at one stage acting as close challengers to his former club.

The progression of Los Nervionenses has allegedly led to interest from Manchester United, who are in the market for a new manager ahead of next season.

However, speaking to El Chiringuito, Lopetegui said: "The [speculation], I can't help it. I am where I want to be. Continue on the Sevilla bench next season? I have no doubt."

If reports are to be believed, United have offered an interview to long-term target Mauricio Pochettino, who is currently in charge of Paris Saint-Germain.

That development comes after Ajax boss Erik ten Hag held discussions with the Premier League giants last week.
