Michael Carrick was fired by Man United on Thursday after overseeing the 20-time English champion’s worst start to an EPL season.
A 4-4 draw with Aston Villa on Sunday left United 18th in the table with just one league win all season (eight points in 10 games), their worst start in 40 years. “After a disappointing start to the season, the club has come to the extremely difficult conclusion that a change is necessary in order to achieve our ambitions,” the club said.
The Red Devils are working on a potential deal to rope in Mauricio Pochettino as Carrick’s replacement, a source told The Associated Press. The 54-year-old Argentine is under contract with the US team until the 2030 World Cup.
