It is now certain that Manchester United Legend, Michael Carrick will be playing under Jose Mourinho next season after it was confirmed by Perth Glory Football Club, an Australian professional soccer club based in Perth, Western Australia. The midfielder has secured a contract extension at Manchester United, according to Perth Glory. Perth were interested in signing Carrick but the A-League side have revealed their disappointment in missing out on the England international.
It was thought the 34-year-old’s close relationship with Perth star Richard Garcia could help push through a deal but it appears he will be playing under Jose Mourinho next season.
‘It was a long shot opportunity due to Richard Garcia’s relationship with Michael,’ Perth chief executive Peter Filopoulos told FourFourTwo.
‘Perth was an option for Michael Carrick as he was going through what he was going to do in his career had he not landed a new signature with Manchester United.
‘We understand he’s now secured an extension with Manchester United so that’s off the table.
‘It certainly was an option to him and his family for lifestyle reasons.’
