Manchester United are reportedly reassessing Michael Carrick’s future, with Stuttgart boss Sebastian Hoeness emerging as a new managerial target as the club considers whether to continue with Carrick.
Review planned for the international break
United director of football Jason Wilcox and club CEO Omar Berrada have decided to reassess the situation at the start of the international break. The Independent’s Miguel Delaney said United “have been racked by indecision” over whether to stick with Carrick or sack him.
Laurie Whitwell has said United are not advancing in talks with any managerial candidate. His comments suggest that Carrick has got the job for the time being.
Hoeness and other candidates
According to Miguel Delaney, Hoeness is highly rated by United chiefs and is a new manager on the club’s radar. United officials are wary that appointing him would involve a huge leap from Stuttgart.
Delaney also said INEOS chiefs are “much less sold on Eddie Howe than perception would have it”. He stated that Julian Nagelsmann’s stock has significantly dropped.
