Manchester United have sacked manager Michael Carrick with immediate effect.
Football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano disclosed the development in a post on X on Thursday.
The decision comes just days after the Red Devils played out an entertaining 4-4 draw against Aston Villa in the Premier League.
Manchester United are reportedly expected to appoint former Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino as Carrick’s replacement.
Carrick was appointed the club’s permanent manager after guiding United to Champions League qualification last season. However, his tenure has now come to an abrupt end.
