End of the Road: Manchester United Set to Sack Michael Carrick TODAY as Mauricio Pochettino Leads Replacement Race!
The axe is about to fall at Old Trafford. Manchester United are set to officially relieve head coach Michael Carrick of his duties today, Tuesday, November 10, 2026, bringing a dramatic end to his stint in charge of the Red Devils.
The decision follows weeks of mounting pressure and extensive internal hierarchy meetings held at Carrington following Sunday's chaotic 4-4 draw against Aston Villa.
📉 A Disastrous Domestic Start
Carrick, who earned the permanent managerial job after a successful interim spell last season, was issued an ultimatum prior to the international break to save his job across three crucial fixtures.
While United mounted dramatic late comebacks—beating AS Roma 3-2 in the Champions League and salvaging a point against Villa—a 2-0 defeat to Chelsea and a shocking 3-0 home loss to Bournemouth sealed his fate.
- Relegation Danger: Manchester United currently sit in 18th place in the Premier League table with just one victory from 10 matches, marking one of the club's worst starts to a league campaign in modern history.
- European Struggles: United sit 17th out of 36 teams in the UEFA Champions League league phase.
🇦🇷 Mauricio Pochettino Emerges as Top Candidate
With United seeking a new manager in place before traveling to face rivals Liverpool at Anfield on November 22, former Tottenham and Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino has emerged as the clear favorite to step into the hot seat.
Pochettino, who led the United States men's national team to the World Cup quarter-finals over the summer, is reportedly interested in accepting the role if a formal approach is finalized. Other options under consideration include Julian Nagelsmann and Antonio Conte, though Pochettino remains the board's primary target.
An official club statement confirming Carrick's departure is expected later today.
