United moving towards sacking Carrick as Wilcox prepares to make recommendation to Sir Jim Ratcliffe – The Guardian

Manchester United are moving towards sacking head coach Michael Carrick, according to a report from The Guardian. The club dropped into the Premier League relegation zone following a 4-4 draw against Aston Villa on Sunday, leaving Carrick with just one win from his opening 10 league matches this season.

No final decision has been reached yet as director of football Jason Wilcox conducts a formal review. Wilcox has reportedly been consulting with chief executive Omar Berrada before presenting an official recommendation to co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who controls sporting policy at the club.
