Manchester United is eagerly awaiting clarity on their interim boss appointment, with sources revealing that a decision could come as early as next week. The club has been in the process of finding a replacement for Ruben Amorim, who was dismissed as head coach on Monday. Darren Fletcher, who temporarily took charge for the 2-2 draw with Burnley, will be back on the sidelines for the FA Cup match against Brighton on Sunday. United has been in talks with several candidates, including former players like Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Michael Carrick, and Ruud van Nistelrooy. Solskjaer is set to meet with CEO Omar Berrada and director of football Jason Wilcox on Saturday, while a meeting with Carrick has already taken place. Van Nistelrooy, who was interim for four games last season, is still in the running, although sources close to him suggest he believes he's not the top choice. Fletcher, who stepped in after Amorim's sacking, has impressed the leadership team with his attacking strategy against Burnley, where his team had 30 shots and 10 on target. However, one of the considerations for appointing Solskjaer is the composition of his backroom staff. As United prepares for the Manchester derby against Manchester City on January 17, the club is keen to resolve the interim boss situation to provide stability and focus for the upcoming games.
