Manchester United has finally decided to part ways with Michael Carrick, after informing the head coach that he has been relieved of his duties as head coach.
That is according to The Athletic, which claims that the 45-year-old and his backroom staff has already been told their fate, following a poor start to the Premier League season.
In response, Man United is now expected to appoint Mauricio Pochettino as the next head coach, with talks already being held with the USMNT manager about the position.
The Red Devils have picked up just eight points in the opening ten games of the campaign, leaving the side in the bottom three heading into the November international break. While comebacks against Roma and Aston Villa in the final week before the break suggested the players were still willing to fight for Carrick, the difficult start seemingly couldn't be overlooked while a decision was being discussed.
