🚨💣 BREAKING: MANCHESTER UNITED HAVE SACKED MICHAEL CARRICK WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT.
Manchester United Sack Carrick, Hire Pochettino from USMNT
Manchester United fired club legend Michael Carrick after a poor start with just one Premier League win in 10 games, dropping them into the relegation zone. They quickly appointed Mauricio Pochettino, who stepped away from the US men's national team with a contract until 2029, calling it one of his toughest decisions. Pochettino's first match in charge comes November 18 against Liverpool at Anfield, as the club paid compensation to US Soccer and eyes a turnaround under the experienced Argentine.
