Unbelievable! Manchester United could make a sensational decision on Carrick
Manchester United could take a completely unexpected route as pressure continues to mount on Michael Carrick.
Details: According to the Daily Mirror, Manchester United are considering keeping Michael Carrick in charge rather than dismissing him. Instead of making another managerial change, the club could strengthen his backroom staff by bringing in additional coaches to help the 45-year-old turn the team's fortunes around.
One potential addition is Bayern Munich coach Aaron Danks, who previously worked alongside Carrick at Middlesbrough. Danks is currently part of Vincent Kompany's coaching staff at the German club, and his name had already been mentioned as a possible reinforcement for United during the summer.
The decisive discussions are expected to take place in Monaco on Wednesday. Manchester United chief executive Omar Berrada and director of football Jason Wilcox are due to meet co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe to discuss Carrick's future. Although a managerial change remains a possibility, no final decision has been announced.
Carrick continued to oversee training on Tuesday despite the uncertainty surrounding his position. The situation became even more complicated following United's dramatic 4-4 draw with Aston Villa, when the team twice recovered from two-goal deficits but once again demonstrated serious defensive problems.
It's worth noting that Manchester United currently sit 18th in the Premier League standings after ten matches, having collected just eight points and recorded only one victory.
