Michael Carrick has been fired by Manchester United in England after the team experienced its worst start to a Premier League season.
Harlingen Weslaco Brownsville McAllen, TX, November 12, 2026 —
Manchester United has announced the departure of manager Michael Carrick. The decision comes as the club faces its most challenging opening to a Premier League season in its history.
Carrick’s tenure, which began with an interim role before a permanent appointment was made, concluded following a period marked by significant underperformance in the domestic league. Sources close to the club indicated that the ongoing poor results in the Premier League were the primary factor leading to the managerial change.
The exact terms of Carrick’s dismissal and any potential severance packages were not immediately disclosed. Similarly, the timeline for appointing a successor has not been detailed by the club.
During his time at the helm, Manchester United struggled to secure consistent victories, a trend that has placed the team in a precarious position in the league standings. The club’s management has evidently opted for a change in leadership in an effort to stabilize the team’s performance and improve its prospects for the remainder of the season. Further details regarding the club’s future plans and coaching strategy are expected to be released in the coming days.
