Michael Carrick to continue as caretaker manager for Manchester United’s clash vs Arsenal as Rangnick awaits work visa

Michael Carrick will continue as caretaker manager for Manchester United’s Premier League match against Arsenal on Thursday as newly-appointed interim manager Ralf Rangnick is awaiting work visa. 

Manchester United interim coach Ralf Rangnick will be unable to take charge of the team for Thursday's Premier League clash with Arsenal as his work visa is yet to be finalised, the club said on Tuesday, adding Michael Carrick will remain caretaker.

United named German Rangnick as interim boss until the end of the season following the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Rangnick, 63, will then continue in a consultancy role for a further two years.
