JUST IN: Man United Close In on Carrick as Interim Manager
Manchester United are reportedly closing in on the appointment of Michael Carrick as interim manager until the end of the season, following the club’s ongoing managerial transition.
Sources close to the development indicate that United have reached a verbal agreement with the former midfielder, who previously served as a first-team coach at Old Trafford. Carrick is said to be viewed as a steady and familiar figure capable of stabilising the squad while the club works on a long-term managerial plan.
Carrick, a former United captain and Champions League winner, is well respected within the dressing room and understands the club’s culture and expectations. His potential return is expected to ensure continuity and calm during a critical phase of the campaign.
The club has yet to make an official announcement, but reports suggest that final details are being ironed out, with Carrick poised to take charge imminently if talks are concluded successfully.
Manchester United are currently focused on regaining consistency in domestic and European competitions, and the interim appointment is seen as a short-term solution aimed at steadying performances and maintaining competitiveness until a permanent manager is appointed.
