Speculations about Manchester United

Fabian Hurzeler's name is beginning to circulate around the Manchester United bench, but the Brighton manager does not seem inclined to be distracted by the rumours. The gossip has fueled media interest, but Hurzeler has reiterated his priority is Brighton.

Michael Carrick's position has come under pressure again after the heavy 4‑1 defeat to Como in the Champions League, and the subsequent statements by captain Bruno Fernandes have intensified the debate. Carrick, a former Manchester United player, has been at the centre of criticism after the loss.

"I'm really focused on my job here. I don't have time to think about these rumours because we play every three days," Hurzeler explained, on the eve of the Premier League away match against Liverpool.

Hurzeler wanted to express his respect for Michael Carrick: "I have a lot of respect for Michael Carrick, for what he did with Manchester United at the end of last season. He is a fantastic person, he has an exceptional personality".

The Brighton manager, coming off a 0‑0 draw against Jablonec in the Conference League but leading the Premier League with 23 goals scored, highlighted that "Even though the journey is not yet over, the players still have a lot of potential to express".
