Manchester United managerial search

Overview

Following the departure of Erik ten Hag, Manchester United Director of Football Jason Wilcox has reportedly played a decisive role in the club’s search for a new manager. While Wilcox previously advocated for Russell Martin, the club ultimately appointed Ruben Amorim.

As the club faces potential further managerial changes involving Michael Carrick, Eddie Howe has emerged as a preferred candidate. Howe has reportedly rejected an approach from Crystal Palace to replace Pierre Sage. Reports suggest that if Howe is appointed, Manchester United may be required to pay £3 million in compensation to Newcastle United. Howe is understood to be open to the role at Old Trafford, subject to negotiations.
