We’re on the road for a special pre-season edition of Inside Carrington, recorded from Manchester United’s training camp in Ireland, as Helen Evans is joined by journalist and lifelong Red Andy Mitten for an exclusive sit-down with head coach Michael Carrick.

Carrick reflects on an encouraging first full pre-season in charge, discusses the exciting blend of youth and experience within his squad, and explains why last season’s progress has only increased the players’ hunger for more success. He also shares his thoughts on the club’s summer signings, the return of Champions League football and the importance of maintaining Manchester United’s attacking identity.

Away from the pitch, we hear about life in camp, from team bonding and player inductions to golf, table tennis rivalries and the squad spirit Carrick believes can help drive the team forward this season.
