“Carrick does not make the final decisions, but he will be involved in discussions after a very strong start, including winning the Manchester derby.

“United will decide whether to pursue an opportunity in January, possibly in midfield or attack, or to keep the current squad until the summer.

“At the moment everything is very quiet and the big investments are expected in the summer with a permanent manager in place.

“In Italy, clubs like Roma and Juventus are waiting to see if United open the door for players such as Joshua Zirkzee, but for now United have not decided.”

“Manchester United said no quite clearly a couple of weeks ago and they have not changed their minds,” Massara claimed.

On signing Donyell Malen from Aston Villa and Robinio Vaz from Marseille, he added:?‘These are two strong players, obviously one is a young talent with prospects, the other is an international who already has a name on the European stage.
