Man United latest: JJ Gabriel update after more talks held as Carrick tipped to U-turn

Manchester United prospect JJ Gabriel reportedly remains in limbo over a move to Bayern Munich, while manager Michael Carrick faces pressure to alter his midfield setup. United recently drew 1-1 against 10-man Tottenham Hotspur, marking their worst start to a league season in 40 years. Following the result, club legend Gary Neville urged Carrick to drop the midfield partnership of Kobbie Mainoo and Youri Tielemans in favor of Carlos Baleba.

Meanwhile, 16-year-old Gabriel is reportedly seeking an exit from Old Trafford, with Bayern Munich holding an interest alongside Barcelona and Real Madrid. Bayern have held talks but await a commitment from the player, who reportedly prefers a move to Spain. United have turned down Gabriel's request to be deregistered as a dispute over guaranteed first-team minutes continues.
