Michael Carrick's future as Manchester United head coach remains unresolved, with a final decision now expected no earlier than Thursday.
Despite widespread reports on Monday night claiming a decision had been made to sack the under-pressure manager, Carrick arrived at the club's Carrington training ground on Tuesday and oversaw training with a depleted group due to international commitments.
Decision Delayed Again
It was expected that Carrick would be sacked on Tuesday, with an official announcement to follow soon after, but BBC Sport report that it will be at least another day until there is concrete clarity.
Carrick's future is set to be discussed at a meeting involving Sir Jim Ratcliffe and senior club executives in Monaco on Wednesday.
Monaco Meeting Planned
Chief executive Omar Berrada and director of football Jason Wilcox on Monday flew out to Monaco for the pre-planned meeting, during which Carrick's future will be discussed.
BBC Sport add that Berrada and Wilcox are expected to recommend on Wednesday to minority owner Ratcliffe and the Glazer family that Carrick be dismissed and a new manager be appointed.
Frontrunners Emerge
A final decision may then not come until Thursday, with Carrick and the club in limbo until official confirmation. Carrick staying has not yet been ruled out.
Mauricio Pochettino is considered the frontrunner for the job should Carrick depart. Eddie Howe, Julian Nagelsmann and Antonio Conte are all thought to be interested in the role.
