Pressure mounts on Carrick

Serious questions are being asked of Michael Carrick’s future at Manchester United, as the shortest priced entry in Premier League sack race markets, but Michael Owen has explained to GOAL why the man calling shots at Old Trafford “deserves time”. The Red Devils only handed a permanent contract to their current head coach in May, but are said to be already regretting that decision.

Alejandro Balde faces an exit from Barcelona: according to AS, the left-back could move in the winter because of his role as a reserve.

Wayne Rooney has been told what he “should have” done to prevent managerial flops at Birmingham and Plymouth. The Manchester United legend has been out of coaching since leaving Home Park in late December 2024, with former Everton team-mate Alan Stubbs telling GOAL why the former England international is unlikely to head back into the dugout any time soon.
