Manchester United’s interim boss Michael Carrick has earned the backing of key players as the club eyes a permanent appointment. Winger Amad, speaking at a Dublin training camp, praised Carrick’s impact, noting the manager’s experience and club DNA. Carrick has lost only one of ten games since taking charge and showing impressive turnaround overall performance.

Carrick’s brief tenure has lifted United’s form, positioning the Red Devils on a path back to Europe. The team sits third in the Premier League, and a win over Leeds United at Old Trafford would cement a Champions League berth. Amad stressed that the decision rests with club officials, not players for the season end.

Amad highlighted Carrick’s clear ambition to win and return United to Europe by next season. He added that Carrick’s familiarity with the club and former player status give him a unique edge. The squad’s Dublin stay at Carton House Hotel underscores the club’s focus on preparation ahead of the upcoming fixtures and success in Europe.

With Carrick’s record of one loss in ten games, United’s trajectory looks promising. The club’s executive board, led by CEO Omar Berrada and director of football Jason Wilcox, will decide Carrick’s fate after the season concludes. Until then, the team aims to secure Champions League qualification and consolidate its league standing for the club future.
