Manchester United set for talks to make Michael Carrick permanent head coach
Carrick has accrued 33 points from 15 league matches
United hierarchy not concerned by relative inexperience
Manchester United are to open formal discussions with Michael Carrick with a view to appointing him as permanent head coach.
The 44-year-old’s success since taking the role on an interim basis in early January has impressed Jason Wilcox, the director of football, and the chief executive, Omar Berrada. After replacing Ruben Amorim, who was sacked on 5 January, Carrick has returned 33 points from 15 Premier League matches, the most accrued during that span.
