EPL: MAN UNITED SET TO PART WAYS WITH CARRICK — REPORT

Manchester United are reportedly preparing to part ways with head coach Michael Carrick following the club’s disappointing start to the 2026/2027 Premier League season.

According to reports, United’s leadership is expected to discuss Carrick’s future at a meeting in Monaco on Wednesday, November 11, involving co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe, chief executive Omar Berrada and director of football Jason Wilcox.

Berrada and Wilcox are reportedly expected to recommend Carrick’s dismissal after a review of the team’s performances.

United have struggled badly in the league, recording just one victory in their opening 10 matches. Their poor results have left them in the relegation zone, increasing pressure on the former midfielder.

Despite a dramatic 4-4 draw against Aston Villa in their most recent league outing, doubts remain over Carrick’s ability to turn the club’s fortunes around.

Meanwhile, former Tottenham, Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain manager Mauricio Pochettino has emerged as a leading candidate to replace him. Reports indicate that United are working towards a possible agreement with the Argentine, who currently manages the United States national team.

Pochettino reportedly has a release clause in his contract, although any appointment would require arrangements with the US football authorities.

As of Wednesday, no official announcement had been made confirming Carrick’s departure. However, expectations are growing that United could make a managerial change during the international break, ahead of their next league fixture against Liverpool on November 22.
