Bryan Mbeumo has expressed his support for Michael Carrick to remain as the permanent manager of Manchester United following the team’s impressive resurgence under the interim boss.
Carrick stepped into the role in January after the departure of Ruben Amorim and has since overseen a remarkable improvement in results and performances.
Under Carrick’s leadership, Manchester United have secured qualification for next season’s UEFA Champions League after winning 10 of their 15 Premier League matches.
What Mbeumo said
Speaking to The iPaper, Mbeumo commended the work being done behind the scenes by United’s coaching staff.
“I work a lot with Travis Binnion and the video analysis team, but also sometimes with Steve Holland and the manager. It’s a really good staff and they’ve done very well. A Lot of People Want Carrick to Stay,” Mbeumo said.
The forward also revealed that there is strong backing for Carrick within football circles.
“A lot of people would like Carrick to stay. Obviously, though, it’s not my decision,” he admitted.
Reports suggest Manchester United’s hierarchy, led by INEOS and technical director Jason Wilcox, is expected to make a final decision on Carrick’s future before the end of the season.
