The story in brief
7-second readMan United have decided to keep Michael Carrick for now, with Unai Emery named as a dream target but difficult to acquire from Aston Villa.
Rumour · This claim is unconfirmed.
From the source
After extensive crisis talks, Manchester United have decided to keep Michael Carrick in charge despite a host of options being linked with the job. The Red Devils are currently languishing in 16th position in the Premier League and they have not won a league game for almost two months.
It seemed as though football director Jason Wilcox was leaning towards Eddie Howe, but financial concerns meant INEOS have steered clear of making a change at this point.
The players have vowed to fight for the cause, starting on Saturday, while Bruno Fernandes and the current boss have patched up after clear-the-air talks.
