On May 14th in Hupu, Ben Jacobs, known as the famous reporter, discussed many Manchester United topics and related situations in the Manchester United self-media called The United Stand.
About Manchester United’s coaching situation
Elora's team was contacted, but ultimately decided not to move in that direction. Luis Enrique was evaluated by them, but he will renew his contract with Paris Saint-Germain.
They had been in contact with Thomas Tuchel, but Thomas Tuchel was willing to sign a new contract with the England team. They also launched a preliminary inquiry into Emery.
Manchester United does not want the outside world to say that Carrick led the team to qualify for the Champions League and then naturally got the coaching position. Carrick was not explicitly informed on day one that he was one of the candidates, but the "interim" title was removed from his job title to allow him to carry out his duties as United manager, which would include participating in recruitment meetings.
The support from the Carrington base and the locker room made Manchester United realize that this was a candidate who met the requirements. This was the best way to transition. Under such circumstances, Carrick's representatives had already started preliminary discussions at the Carrington base.
Carrick is close to taking over the job, but formal negotiations over the terms of the contract have yet to begin. Omar Berarda and Wilcox will have to formally confirm with Sir Ratcliffe that Carrick is the most suitable candidate at an executive committee meeting, and if all goes according to plan, Carrick can then start formal negotiations.
As far as I know, he has had one formal interview, so any subsequent conversations with Michael Carrick will focus on the terms of the contract and there will be no need for additional formal interviews. That's why Carrick is the favorite at the moment. As far as I know, they have actually carried out a fairly comprehensive and rigorous selection process and have communicated with many other candidates. The entire process covers everything from data to written reports to interviews with more than one candidate.
They have generally concluded that in the current market, the candidates available from the Premier League do not rank higher than Carrick in their minds. Xabi Alonso is not actually the main favorite, and Tutuchel is the earlier front-runner.
However, after that man signed a new contract with the England team, all circumstances turned into a state where it was impossible to achieve. There was indeed some preliminary contact with Nagelsmann, but according to what I learned, he had never participated in a formal interview.
