Michael Carrick avoids seeking clarity on his role as Manchester United manager

The ex-midfielder of United took over as head coach for the remainder of the season after Ruben Amorim's contentious departure in January.

Carrick has orchestrated victories over Manchester City and Arsenal in a strong run that has boosted United to third place in the Premier League.

However, he remains without any firm details about what comes next.

I have mentioned it repeatedly, I take pleasure in this position and what it entails, Carrick remarked on Thursday, before the upcoming home game versus Brentford on Monday.

We have achieved several positive outcomes and our form is solid. Much of the season remains, and we aim to continue progressing, reaching new levels indeed. I will wait and observe.

I repeat the same points each week. There is a limit to what I can add on this topic, yet I have addressed it often.

Once more, I appreciate working here and cherish the opportunity. It is a true honour to hold this role with the duties it brings.

The 44 year old former England player indicated uncertainty about when he might receive updates on his position.

Honestly, it is not a matter of set timelines that I am pursuing. Clarity will emerge at the appropriate moment.
