Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Michael Carrick are locked in a two-way fight to become Manchester United’s interim head coach until the end of the season.
Daily Mail Sport understands that Solskjaer and Carrick spoke to chief executive Omar Berrada and director of football Jason Wilcox on Tuesday, but the club won’t make a final decision until they have met both men in person.
Although Darren Fletcher, who will be caretaker boss for Wednesday night’s game at Burnley, still has an outside chance of landing the interim job, Ruud van Nistelrooy has drifted out of contention.
