Michael Carrick drops Manchester United future hint after 'offer tabled' | OneFootball

Head coach has turned Red Devils’ season around in his short tenure

Michael Carrick has issued an update on his future at Manchester United after reports emerged that the Red Devils had offered him a deal to become the club’s permanent manager.

The former England midfielder took over the reins until the end of the campaign from Ruben Amorim, who was sacked in January with the club sixth in the table.

Carrick has since led his former club to an unlikely Champions League qualification, guiding them to 12 wins in his 17 games in charge.

It has led to plentiful speculation about whether he will be handed the role on a full-time basis beyond the summer, instead of United hiring another manager.

Asked about his future ahead of his side’s penultimate game of the campaign against Nottingham Forest, Carrick replied: “There’s two games to go, apart from that there’s not much else to say,.

“The situation is pretty clear for us all. Same as in preparing for the game.

“It’s a unique football club, a special club. Immensely proud to have come back and been a part of it, as a supporter and ex-player, as a pure supporter to be in a position to come back and help and move forward was important.

“The future for me is going to be decided pretty soon, we knew that. Nothing has changed, there is no big swing on that.”
