Carrick's First Season Begins | Manchester United News

Manchester United kicks off the 2026-27 Premier League under new manager Michael Carrick, aiming to build on last season’s third-place finish. After a mixed preseason that ended with a loss to AC Milan, the squad remains injury-free overall. Key players like Marcus Rashford are set to return, while new signings Youri Tielemans and Andrey Santos could debut in the opener against newly promoted Hull City. Šeško is back in training, but Mount remains sidelined with an uncertain return, and de Ligt is rehabbing before October. Hull, meanwhile, faces its own absences: Gelhardt out long-term, Drameh possibly returning soon, and Hughes still recovering. Former United keeper Jack Butland and Darko Gyabi also miss the match due to extended injuries. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
