Former Manchester United captain, Michael Carrick succeeds Ruben Amorim as coach, as announced by the “Red Devils” this Tuesday. The 44-year-old English coach has signed until the end of the season. “Having the responsibility of leading Manchester United is an honor. I know what it takes to be successful. My focus is on helping players reach the required standards and we know this group is capable of achieving that. There is still a lot to play for this season,” he told Man United media. After 464 games for the club between 2006 and 2018, Carrick joined the technical teams of José Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, taking over the helm of the first team on an interim basis after Solskjaer's departure, with two wins in three games. Between 2022 and 2025, the former English international coached Middlesbrough, but without managing to promote to the Premier League.
