Michael Carrick and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could work togetherOle Gunnar Solskjaer and Michael Carrick could work together as potential successors to Ruben Amorim at Manchester United. The Portuguese manager was dismissed on Monday, with the club stating that the decision was made to maximise their chances of a high Premier League finish. Both Carrick and Solskjaer have been in informal discussions with the board this week about taking over the reins at Old Trafford. Further talks with Solskjaer and Carrick are expected in the coming days before a final decision is made. Carrick failed to guide the Teesside outfit to Premier League promotion and subsequently lost his position in the summer of 2025.
