Manchester United consider permanent successor to Michael Carrick

Michael Carrick’s position as Manchester United manager remains uncertain, with the club potentially preparing to make a change in the near future.

Should Manchester United decide to part company with Carrick, the club intends to appoint a permanent replacement immediately, according to talkSPORT. The “Red Devils” are not interested in bringing in a temporary manager while they search for a long-term appointment.

Mauricio Pochettino is reported to be interested in the Manchester United job. The Argentine has previously managed in the Premier League with Tottenham and Chelsea.

Eddie Howe is also regarded as one of the leading contenders for the position, the report adds.
