SOCCER

Manchester United are expected to appoint Michael Carrick as interim manager by the end of the day.

It's understood the former Middlesbrough boss has reached a verbal agreement to take over for the rest of the season, following Ruben Amorim's sacking last week.

Carrick previously took charge of United for a brief period in 2021 following the departure of Ole Gunner Solskjaer, while he also played for the club for 12 years.

The club is hoping to finalise the appointment before players return for training tomorrow ahead of their Premier League meeting with Manchester City this weekend.

 

The first of the English League Cup semi-finals takes place tonight.

Holders Newcastle entertain Manchester City at St James' Park from 8pm.

The return leg takes place in three weeks time.

Arsenal and Chelsea are on the other side of the draw, with those two teams set to meet tomorrow night.

 

GOLF

Five-time major champion Brooks Koepka has returned to the PGA Tour.#

The American, who quit Saudi-backed LIV Golf last month, has agreed to stringent restrictions on his financial benefits and a charitable donation of five million US dollars.

The PGA has offered a "one-time, defined window" for fellow big names Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm and Cam Smith to reapply for membership.

 

RACING

There's an eight-race meeting on the all-weather at Dundalk this afternoon, with the first going to post at 1:30pm.
