Michael Carrick has made it clear that he does not envision himself as Manchester United’s long-term manager, regardless of how his current spell at the helm unfolds.
The former England midfielder, who stepped in as caretaker manager, stressed that his focus remains on guiding the team through the immediate period rather than taking on a permanent role.
Carrick’s comments come amid speculation over the club’s managerial future, with fans and media debating whether he could be a candidate for the permanent position.
The interim coach, however, emphasised that he sees his role as temporary and has no intention of committing to a long-term tenure at Old Trafford.
This statement provides clarity for the club’s supporters, setting expectations that United will continue their search for a permanent head coach.
For now, Carrick’s focus remains firmly on managing the squad and navigating the team through its upcoming fixtures.
