From the source

Manchester United may be heading for another managerial change, and if Eddie Howe is the leading candidate then this is not simply about picking a name off a shortlist.

It is about structure, control and whether the club are finally ready to let a head coach work on proper terms. According to Standard Sport, Michael Carrick is under severe pressure after back-to-back defeats to Como and Bournemouth, with his position looking increasingly vulnerable.

The report says Carrick is expected to be sacked this week, and that Howe is the first-choice option for club chief James Wilcox. Antonio Conte and Julian Nagelsmann are also mentioned, but Howe is the name that stands out because his demands are already well established.
