Manchester United have sacked Michael Carrick with immediate effect.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano announced this on Thursday morning.
The 45-year-old has been sacked after a disappointing start to the season.
For some time, Carrick’s dismissal had looked likely. Mauricio Pochettino now appears set to succeed him and get Manchester United back on track.
Carrick has held a permanent contract at Old Trafford since the start of this season. As interim manager last season, he guided the club to an impressive third place in the Premier League.
This season, though, Manchester United have struggled badly. They have shown no improvement in recent weeks.
The English giants sit 18th in the Premier League, below the relegation line, and 17th out of 36 in the Champions League.
