• He wants Woodgate as a coach and will offer Fletcher role

• Money available for transfers and Rúben Neves a target

Manchester United expect to confirm Michael Carrick as the interim manager on Tuesday, with finance to be at the 44‑year‑old’s disposal to strengthen the squad should a target for the long term become available.

The announcement of Carrick’s appointment is scheduled for Tuesday and Darren Fletcher, who has taken charge of two games since Ruben Amorim’s sacking, will be given the opportunity to be part of the coaching team.
