Michael Carrick has been appointed as Manchester United’s interim head coach until the end of the season, the club have confirmed.
Carrick arrived at Carrington on Tuesday morning after verbally agreeing terms over the temporary role and make-up of his backroom team in meetings with club executives on Monday.
The 44-year-old will be assisted by former England No.2 Steve Holland and his old Middlesbrough first-team coach Jonathan Woodgate.
United’s Under-21s coach Travis Binnion and ex-defender Jonny Evans, who joined the back-room team when Darren Fletcher was installed as caretaker boss last week, will continue to work under Carrick, although Fletcher is expected to revert to the Under-18s.
