Manchester United is considering Fabian Hurzeler as a potential replacement for Michael Carrick amid growing pressure on the interim manager. Hurzeler, currently the head coach of Stoke City, is seen as a top candidate for the role if United decide to change coaches. Carrick, who took over after Solskjaer’s exit, has faced mounting criticism following a 2-4 record in nine Premier League games.
Sources indicate that Hurzeler is the most likely name to be considered if United opt to replace Carrick. Despite Carrick’s recent performance, the club has not yet made a decision. A senior official previously dismissed the idea of sacking Carrick as “silly,” but the pressure continues to mount. Hurzeler, known for his tactical acumen and experience in the Premier League, could offer a fresh direction for the club.
This potential move comes after a poor start to the season, with Carrick’s team struggling to find consistency. Hurzeler’s experience in managing Championship teams and his familiarity with English football could be valuable assets. However, any change in management would require approval from the club’s board. The situation remains under review, with no official announcement expected in the near future.
