Michael Carrick Rules Out Resignation as Manchester United Future Remains Uncertain

By Chag Sports Team · 09 Nov 2026

Michael Carrick applauding in a Manchester United setting as he rules out resigning from the club’s managerial position.

Michael Carrick has made it clear that he has no intention of resigning as Manchester United head coach despite the club’s difficult run of results.

Carrick spoke after United’s dramatic 4–4 draw with Aston Villa, a match in which United surrendered a two-goal advantage before scoring late to rescue a point. The result left the club in the Premier League relegation zone after 10 league matches.

When questioned about his position, Carrick insisted that walking away from the job was not something he was considering. He acknowledged that United have not won enough games but said his focus remains on improving the team and getting results.

The manager’s comments come at a time when his position remains under serious scrutiny. United’s hierarchy are currently reviewing his future, with director of football Jason Wilcox consulting chief executive Omar Berrada before a recommendation is made to Sir Jim Ratcliffe.

Carrick had been given a run of matches to improve United’s fortunes following the heavy defeat to Bournemouth. United subsequently lost to Chelsea, defeated Roma in the Champions League and drew with Aston Villa, leaving the club’s leadership with another major decision to make during the international break.

Despite the uncertainty, Carrick remains determined to continue working with the squad.

For now, the former Manchester United midfielder is refusing to walk away. However, the final decision over his future remains in the hands of the club’s hierarchy as United look for a way out of their difficult start to the season.
