Manchester United plans changes to coaching staff under Michael Carrick

Summary

Manchester United is set to upgrade its coaching staff following Michael Carrick's appointment as head coach on a permanent basis. The club aims to hire a coach with expertise in set-piece training to complement the current team, which includes Jonny Evans overseeing that area. Options under consideration include returning to former set-piece coach Andreas Georgson or hiring Aaron Danks, whom Carrick knows well. The club is adopting a cautious approach to ensure any new appointment fits seamlessly with Carrick's established staff. A decision on the new coaching addition is expected soon as the team prepares for a demanding season ahead.
