Decisive Match for Carrick? The Preferred Successor is Revealed
The former midfielder is under heavy criticism at Manchester United. A favorite to succeed him is reportedly already in place.
A crisis mood prevails at Manchester United!
Under Michael Carrick, things have been anything but smooth this season. In the league, the record champions are only in 17th place, two points above the bottom of the table. On Saturday, they face a tough away match against Chelsea (from 1:30 PM in the LIVE ticker >>>).
According to English media reports, this could be a decisive match for Carrick. If his team loses, it could mean the end of his tenure.
Successor from a League Rival?
Meanwhile, according to transfer insider Fabrizio Romano, United bosses have already agreed on a preferred successor. Reportedly, it is Aston Villa's successful coach Unai Emery.
However, unlike unemployed Julian Nagelsmann and Antonio Conte, who were also rumoured, the Spaniard would cost a transfer fee.
Emery is still tied to Villa until 2029. According to Romano, a signing would likely be a very difficult undertaking, as the club is determined to keep the Spaniard.
