Manchester United have reportedly sacked head coach Michael Carrick with immediate effect following the club's disappointing start to the 2026/27 season.

The decision brings an end to Carrick's spell in charge at Old Trafford after a difficult campaign that has left the Red Devils struggling in the Premier League.

United are currently in the relegation zone after collecting just eight points from their opening 10 league matches, marking their worst start to a season in four decades.

The club's hierarchy is understood to have lost patience with the former Manchester United midfielder following a series of disappointing results, including heavy defeats to Bournemouth and Como.

Meanwhile, the Red Devils have reportedly identified former Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino as their preferred replacement.

Reports indicate that Manchester United have reached an agreement in principle with the Argentine tactician, who currently manages the United States men's national team.
