Ralf Rangnick: Man Utd interim boss awaits work permit, Michael Carrick will oversee Arsenal match

Michael Carrick will remain in charge of Manchester United's match against Arsenal on Thursday because of a work permit held by Ralf Rangnick.

New travel restrictions came into effect before the new interim manager arrived in England, but he is still waiting for a permit to start work.

The visa application process means that interim boss Michael Carrick will be back in the dug out once more, having already overseen the 2-0 win at Villarreal and the draw with Chelsea.

The club said that Michael communicated this to players and staff in a busy week. The in-form Gunners are coming to town.

The man who arrived in England will not be in the dugout for the game.

The new guidelines came into effect on Tuesday and require people to take a negative test within 48 hours of arriving in England.

The first game in charge by the German will be at home to Crystal Palace on Sunday.
