Next Manchester United manager odds: Pochettino favourite to replace Carrick

Take a look at the odds to be Manchester United manager on 1st January 2027 with Michael Carrick reportedly close to the sack.

Michael Carrick has come under increasing scrutiny at Old Trafford following a dismal start to the season. Manchester United had won two of 11 games in all competitions -- both at home, to Ipswich Town and Sabah -- keeping just one clean sheet in the process before coming from 2-0 down to dramatically beat Roma 3-2 in the UEFA Champions League.

United then twice came from two goals behind to rescue a point against Aston Villa, but the calamitous defending on display at Old Trafford throughout the season means the club look set to part ways with Carrick on Wednesday, having taken charge of just 11 league games since being made permanent head coach.

Market settled on Manchester United's manager on 1st January 2027.

The likes of Eddie Howe, Julian Nagelsmann and Antonio Conte had all been linked with the job but all had big question marks hanging over them. Then there was the likes of Thomas Tuchel and Gareth Southgate, both wholly unsuitable for their own reasons, before Mauricio Pochettino's price was slashed during the 4-4 draw with Aston Villa.

The former Tottenham and Chelsea boss has been courted by United in the past, and is now odds-on favourite at 4/11 to take over.
