A 3-2 victory over Nottingham Forest on Sunday secured third place in the Premier League for the Red Devils.

Carrick is set to be rewarded for his impact since taking over in January by being handed the job permanently.

"Over the coming days there will be clarity in the situation. Today what was important was the game and getting the right result, and about some individuals as well," said the former United and England midfielder.

"Whatever news there is going to be, I'm sure you will get it in a few days."

In an address to the fans after United's final home game of the season, Carrick hinted he will remain in charge.

"We've had some big, big moments, big goals and big results in this place over the last few months," he said.

"Hopefully there will be a few more of them."

Carrick has won 11 of his 16 matches in charge to ensure United return to the Champions League next season after a two-year absence.
