Manchester United is actively seeking a permanent manager, even as the team shows improvement under interim leadership. Paris Saint-Germain’s Luis Enrique is among the notable candidates being considered.
After Ruben Amorim left in January 2026, Michael Carrick took on the interim role and has led the team to strong results, putting them back in contention for a top-four finish.
Despite this positive trend, there is still uncertainty about the team’s future leadership after this season.
The club is maintaining a shortlist of managerial options as they explore long-term solutions, with several high-profile names in the mix.
One notable name is Luis Enrique from Paris Saint-Germain.
The experienced Spanish coach, recognized as one of Europe’s leading managers, has been loosely linked to the Manchester United position as they continue their search.
However, recent events suggest he may not be moving to Manchester.
Enrique seemed to downplay rumors about joining United during a fan interaction where he was signing autographs.
While fans encouraged him to stay in Paris, Enrique reportedly laughed off the mention of Manchester United, indicating his preference.
At 55, he is still under contract with PSG, where he is seen as crucial to the club’s future plans, with talks about extending his contract until 2030.
His reaction may influence Manchester United’s management as they narrow down potential candidates.
Meanwhile, Carrick’s strong showing as interim manager adds complexity to the decision, with some advocating for him to be appointed permanently if his success continues.
As summer approaches, Manchester United faces a crucial choice that could define the club’s future direction.
