Richard Keys calls for Wilcox and Berrada to follow Carrick out of Manchester United

Manchester United are on the verge of parting company with manager Michael Carrick, with conversations ongoing and an expectation this time that enough is enough. The potential sacking comes with the club 18th in the Premier League and amid an eight-game winless run in the competition.

Richard Keys believes that if the manager is dismissed, director of football Jason Wilcox and CEO Omar Berrada must also leave. Keys said, “If United sack Carrick Wilcox & Berrada must go as well. This is on them. Wilcox has failed too many times & Berrada shouldn’t be allowed to run from what happened at City. He was there – in the middle of it. Clear the decks United.”

Berrada and Wilcox are part of the meeting which is going to take place to get rid of Carrick, but their own exits do not currently look as if they will come to fruition.
