Michael Carrick has been pictured arriving at Carrington for what is expected to be his final time as Manchester United manager.
The under-fire boss gave a thumbs up as he was photographed driving into the car park at the club's training base early on Thursday morning.
Face-to-face meeting expected
Carrick is expected to be sacked by United at Carrington later in the day in a face-to-face meeting with United's CEO Omar Berrada and director of football Jason Wilcox, who are both now back in the UK following their talks with co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe in Monaco on Wednesday.
It was decided in that summit after weeks of speculation that Carrick would be relieved of his duties after an abysmal start to the season that has seen United win only one of their first 10 Premier League games and sit in the relegation zone heading into the international break.
Replacement lined up
United are believed to be lining up Mauricio Pochettino as Carrick's replacement, with an official approach now understood to have been made to US Soccer and an agreement close on personal terms.
