Summary
Michael Carrick is still running Manchester United training despite an expected dismissal, with the club yet to formally ratify a decision insiders already regard as settled.
A Monaco meeting involving Jim Ratcliffe, Jason Wilcox and Omar Berrada delayed the process, leaving Carrick in place through the international break while United finalize next steps.
Mauricio Pochettino is the leading replacement, and United are working on an approach even though he is currently with the U.S. men's national team.
$10 million in compensation could be required to land Pochettino and his staff, adding to criticism that United mishandled both Carrick's exit and the timing of the succession.
