Manchester United Unsure on Eddie Howe as Carrick Successor
Manchester United are not fully sold on Eddie Howe to replace Michael Carrick, with doubts over Nagelsmann and Hurzeler too. Here is where things stand.
Manchester United's decision-makers are still not completely convinced that Eddie Howe is the right man to take over from Michael Carrick, according to The Independent. The report adds to the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the manager's job at Old Trafford.
Doubts extend to Nagelsmann and Hurzeler
Howe is not the only name causing hesitation among the club's hierarchy. The same report says reservations also exist over other candidates linked with the role, including Julian Nagelsmann and Fabian Hurzeler. That leaves the Red Devils without a clear frontrunner who has the full backing of those at the top of the club.
Roma win buys Carrick some breathing space
Meanwhile, United have yet to reach a final verdict on Carrick himself. Their recent Champions League victory over Roma has taken some of the heat off the head coach, giving him a little more time to make his case. How the team performs over the coming weeks could weigh heavily on the board's eventual decision about the Manchester United manager position.
