Amad Diallo has thrown his support behind Michael Carrick to become the permanent manager of Manchester United, praising the interim boss for his leadership and connection with the squad.
Carrick assumed control of the team in January following the dismissal of Ruben Amorim and has since overseen an impressive run of form. Under his guidance, the club has recorded seven wins and just one defeat in 10 matches, reigniting hopes of a return to the UEFA Champions League after a two-year absence.
With seven games remaining, United are within reach of qualification, needing a strong finish to secure their place among Europe’s elite. Despite the progress, the club’s hierarchy is taking a cautious approach, opting to delay a final decision on the managerial position until the end of the season.
However, potential alternatives appear limited, with Thomas Tuchel committing to the England national team role and Roberto De Zerbi reportedly moving elsewhere.
Speaking during the club’s training camp, Diallo expressed confidence in Carrick’s ability to lead the team long-term, highlighting his experience, deep understanding of the club, and strong relationship with players.
Other members of the squad have echoed similar sentiments, noting that Carrick’s familiarity with the club and his communication style have made a positive impact on performances.
While the final decision rests with the club’s leadership, growing support within the dressing room suggests Carrick has made a strong case to remain in charge beyond the current season.
