United to open talks with Carrick over permanent role
- Manchester United will open contract negotiations with interim manager Michael Carrick next week regarding the permanent position, though club officials maintain interest in other high-profile candidates.
- Following Ruben Amorim's dismissal in January, Carrick assumed interim control and steered United to third place; executives remain cautious about repeating 2019, when temporary form led to a permanent appointment lacking silverware.
- With 10 wins in 15 matches, Carrick has delivered victories against Manchester City, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Aston Villa, securing Champions League qualification and bolstering his case for the permanent role.
- Chief executive Omar Berrada and director of football Jason Wilcox reportedly believe Carrick is the right choice, though co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe holds the final say on significant appointments.
- Formal discussions are expected to commence ahead of the May 24 season finale, as a permanent appointment would significantly assist United's transfer window planning.
