Carrick's future with Manchester United will be determined in a meeting attended by the club's owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe and executives Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox in Monaco on Wednesday. The manager's position has come under scrutiny following Manchester United's poor performance, which has seen the team drop to 18th in the Premier League.
A report from BBC Sport suggested that chief executive Berrada and director of football Wilcox are expected to recommend that Ratcliffe and the Glazer family sack Carrick. While Berrada and Wilcox will present their recommendation, the Glazers will also be consulted, and a decision on Carrick's fate may not be announced until Thursday.
The meeting in Monaco is not solely focused on Carrick's future, but the issue is likely to be one of the topics discussed. Manchester United's hierarchy still believes that a top five finish in the league is possible, despite the worst start to a domestic campaign in 40 years. Rumors have circulated about potential replacements for Carrick, with former Chelsea coach Eddie Howe, ex-Germany coach Julian Nagelsmann, Antonio Conte, and Mauricio Pochettino among the names being considered.
Pochettino, who recently signed an extension to his contract as USA coach, may have clauses in his deal that allow him to leave for high-profile positions.
