Manchester United is in early talks with former players Darren Fletcher, Michael Carrick, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to serve as caretaker manager until the end of the season following the sacking of Ruben Amorim, with Carrick considered a serious candidate and plans to appoint a permanent manager in the summer.
Manchester United is considering former player Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as a leading candidate for the interim manager role following the dismissal of Ruben Amorim, with Darren Fletcher temporarily in charge for the upcoming match against Burnley. The club is exploring options including Ruud van Nistelrooy and Michael Carrick, with plans to appoint a long-term successor in the summer.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has hinted at a possible return to Manchester United in a new role at the club. The former manager, who spent 11 years at United as a player, was spotted at Old Trafford for the first time since his sacking in 2021. Speaking at an event earlier this week, Solskjaer said he has "another job in me" but it has to be "something special" or "a club that really excites me". He also refused to rule out a return to United in some capacity.
