Bruno Fernandes lays out conditions for staying at Man Utd as he plays down team resurgence under Michael Carrick

As United weigh up their next permanent managerial appointment following the January departure of Ruben Amorim, interim boss Michael Carrick has steered the ship with seven wins from ten matches.

Despite the positive atmosphere around the training ground and growing calls for Carrick to be handed the job permanently, Fernandes remains cautious about labelling the current run as a true turning point.

He noted: “If we finish the way we want to finish, it’s going to look very good, but it’s still not the picture we want. At the end of the day, it’s what are we going to do for next season, to be the team we’ve been in this spell, for a full season? Because anyone can be good in spells. Being good in the whole season is much more difficult to do.”
