Crisis decision: Manchester United part ways with head coach in shock move!

Manchester United have parted ways with Michael Carrick.

According to TodayPress TV, the club announced on its official website that Carrick, who had been serving as interim head coach, had been dismissed.

The club's statement read:

“Manchester United confirms that Michael Carrick has left his role as head coach. Michael returned to the club in January and led the team to 12 victories in the remaining 17 matches of the 2025/2026 season, guiding United to third place in the Premier League. During that period, the team also collected more points than any other side in the league.

Following a disappointing start to the season, the club came to the extremely difficult conclusion that changes were necessary to give us the best possible chance of achieving our objectives.

Michael is and always will be a Manchester United legend. Throughout his time at the club, just as during his playing career, he demonstrated outstanding commitment and professionalism. His leadership qualities and the achievements he delivered last season will always be remembered.

The club intends to appoint a new permanent head coach as soon as possible.”
