Michael Carrick has been appointed as the new head coach of Manchester United following the dismissal of Ruben Amorim.
Amorim had a significant disagreement with sporting director Jason Wilcox shortly before the draw against Leeds United, leading to his exit.
Carrick now faces a tough task for the rest of the season in a challenging environment.
The team is out of all cup competitions, with only 17 Premier League games remaining.
Qualifying for the Champions League is crucial, and Carrick will aim to have the strongest squad possible.
The Manchester Derby is coming up, and United might receive a significant boost.
Both Bryan Mbeumo and Amad have returned to the Manchester United squad.
Reports suggest Mbeumo and Amad are set to join the team for the Manchester City match after being sidelined for 32 days.
Both players resumed first-team training this week after participating in the Africa Cup of Nations.
Carrick conducted his first training session on Wednesday and will decide on the squad for the City game.
Recently, United has struggled with their attack, especially while shifting to a traditional front three.
Amorim’s three-back setup featured two number 10s playing centrally in front of a striker.
Darren Fletcher, as interim head coach, utilized a traditional front three with wide wingers.
Shea Lacey, who has impressed this season, received a red card against Brighton in the FA Cup and is now facing a three-match suspension.
Lacey is expected to play with the U21s tonight against Fulham along with Bendito Mantato.
The timing of Mbeumo and Amad’s return could not be better for the team.
