Manchester United keeps Italian coach Antonio Conte on its list of candidates after gathering 4 points in the first 4 matchdays of the 2026-2027 Premier League season.

According to reports from Corriere della Sera and Corriere dello Sport, the board based at Old Trafford is assessing the situation of the Italian coach as an immediate option if the squad led by Michael Carrick does not improve its performance in the upcoming official matches.

Michael Carrick's Contract at Manchester United and the Doubts About the Start

The 45-year-old coach took over in January 2026 to replace the sacked Rúben Amorim, securing third place in the league to qualify for the UEFA Champions League. This performance led the Manchester United leadership to offer him a recently signed formal extension, with a contract running until June 2028.

Nevertheless, earning only 4 points from 12 possible at the start of the season has revived doubts among the top executives. Although sacking the English coach is not a short-term plan, the volatility of results has tested the patience of the board.

Antonio Conte's Availability and Competition with Juventus

The Italian manager has been without a team since May 2026, when he agreed to terminate his contract with Napoli a year earlier than planned. The 57-year-old former Juventus coach prioritizes projects in clubs with title ambitions to end his coaching hiatus.

Meanwhile, Luciano Spalletti's position at Juventus is under scrutiny due to the club's second worst start in the last 8 years. Even though Spalletti is under contract in Italy until June 2028, the Turin fans are pushing for Conte's return, prompting the British board to act promptly if they decide on a coaching change.

Manchester United's operations department will evaluate the team's performance in the 3 matches following the September FIFA break. If the results do not improve before the October 2026 break, the Manchester United executives will make formal contact with Antonio Conte's representatives to negotiate the terms of his contract.
