‎Manchester United have reportedly decided to sack Michael Carrick after the club's owners met in Monaco on Wednesday. Journalist Ben Jacobs says Carrick is expected to be formally told of the decision today, with Mauricio Pochettino having already agreed terms to replace him. Sky Sports reports a verbal agreement in principle with the 54-year-old, who is likely to stay in charge of the United States for their two games against Haiti during the international break.

‎Carrick took over as interim coach in January after Ruben Amorim was sacked and led United to third place last season, before being made permanent in the summer. But a poor start to this season leaves them 18th in the Premier League on 8 points, with one league win all season and none since August. Their next game is away at Liverpool on November 22, and Pochettino has a release clause of around £7 million in his U.S. contract.
