Michael Carrick unsure over Manchester United future after receiving no guarantees

Manchester United manager Michael Carrick says he has been given no assurances that he will remain in charge beyond the international break.

The Red Devils play their final match before a two-week pause for international fixtures on Wednesday, but it is unclear whether Carrick will still be in his post when club football resumes.

Asked at a news conference whether he had been told he would continue as manager the following week, Carrick said: “No. I just carry on working as normal. There will only be three or four players remaining at the training ground, and I’m not used to that. We’ll see whether we train next weekend.”

Manchester United face Aston Villa in their final match before the break, with kick-off at 19:30 Moscow time.
