Michael Carrick Hints at Desire for Permanent Role at Manchester United
Posted on February 07, 2026, updated on February 07, 2026
Interim manager Michael Carrick has subtly indicated he would like to remain at Manchester United beyond the current season. Since taking over from Ruben Amorim in January, Carrick has successfully led the team to three consecutive wins, showcasing both tactical acumen and a connection with the players.
In a recent press conference, when asked about the club's long-term plans, Carrick expressed that while he is focused on immediate success, he feels at home at Old Trafford. He emphasized the importance of building a successful team regardless of who is managing it, suggesting he is invested in the club’s future.
Carrick’s achievements in such a short timeframe highlight a potential for further positive results, raising questions about whether he could transition from interim to permanent manager. As the team continues to perform well, the club will likely evaluate its options carefully for the next managerial appointment.
With a fresh approach and promising results, Carrick looks poised to keep the momentum going as United aims for a strong finish to the season and potentially solidifies his position within the club.
