Manchester United target Luis Enrique as an alternative to Michael Carrick | OneFootball

Manchester United are targeting Paris Saint-Germain boss Luis Enrique as an alternative to Michael Carrick to take the managerial role at Old Trafford on a full-time basis, The Times understands. The Spaniard is one of only a small number of ‘elite’ candidates who could prevent the former England international midfielder from landing the role permanently. 

Carrick has impressed since he got the role at Manchester United on an interim basis. The Red Devils have won 9 of the 13 matches that the former Middlesbrough boss has taken charge of. His impressive start has seen the Mancunian outfit rise to third in the Premier League table. 

Would Luis Enrique be interested in moving to Manchester United?

Despite the interest from the English giants, the former Spain international head coach seems content in the French capital. The Times reports that Luis Enrique is happy at the Parc des Princes, and the prospect of managing at Old Trafford is unlikely to change that.
