Man Utd boss Carrick hints at potential squad rotation ahead of Sunderland clash
Manchester United travels to Sunderland on Saturday, May 9, 2026, with interim head coach Michael Carrick hinting at squad rotation after the club secured Champions League qualification.
Last weekend's 3-2 victory over Liverpool secured United's return to the Champions League, ending a two-year exile from Europe's elite competition.
Lisandro Martinez returns to the starting XI after serving a three-game suspension, while striker Benjamin Sesko is managing a shin issue, Carrick said.
Sunderland forward Brian Brobbey, who signed for £17 million, previously called United his 'dream club' in September 2022.
Interim head coach Carrick has done all he can to secure Champions League return, though no official decision has been made regarding the club's next permanent manager.
For Manchester United, there is not much left at stake in the final weeks of the Premier League. Senne Lammens and co are already assured of Champions League football next season. Will United take all three points at Sunderland after all?
