This market will resolve according to the person who is appointed as the next permanent manager of Manchester United. If no permanent manager is appointed by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "Other." Appointments of 'interim,' 'caretaker,' or other non-permanent managers will not impact this market's resolution. An announcement of a new permanent manager's appointment before this market's close date will immediately resolve this market to the corresponding option, regardless of when the announced appointment goes into effect. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from Manchester United; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.Michael Carrick commands a 91% implied probability as trader consensus for Manchester United's next permanent head coach, driven by reports of unanimous INEOS approval and the discarding of eight rival candidates like Oliver Glasner and Luis Enrique after his successful interim tenure. Securing Champions League qualification via an unbeaten start, strong dressing room backing, and advanced backroom planning—including Bayern's Aaron Danks—have solidified his position, with pundits like Alan Shearer endorsing continuity at Old Trafford. A late-season collapse or sudden availability of a marquee name such as Thomas Tuchel post-international duty could realistically shift sentiment, though current momentum suggests imminent confirmation.
