Carrick not looking to United future at present
Michael Carrick insisted he is not chasing an answer to his future at Manchester United as his side prepares to face Brentford in the Premier League.
Carrick was brought in on an interim basis after the sacking of Ruben Amorim in January and has put United in a prime position to qualify for the UEFA Champions League.
United has lost just twice since Carrick took over, but has also beaten Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea in that time.
It sits third on the Premier League table, eight points clear of sixth-place Brighton and Hove Albion with five games left to play, and one in hand over the Seagulls.
United is still yet to make a decision over the manager for next season, and although Carrick has been heavily tipped for the full-time job, he is not looking past the current campaign.
"I've said it many times, I enjoy being here, I enjoy the role I'm in," Carrick said.
"We've had some good results, and we're in decent shape. We still want to keep improving, there's layers that we want to get to, really. I'll see.
"I keep saying the same things every week. There's only so much I can say in terms of that, but I've said it many times.
"Again, I enjoy being here, I love being here. It's a real privilege to be in the position I am, but thriving with the responsibility that we've got."
Pushed about when he expected clarity, Carrick added: "I'm not sure, to be honest.
"Genuinely, it's not something in terms of deadlines that I'm really chasing. I think it'll become clear when it's going to become clear.
"I'm here at the moment to help the team and help the club get results.
"At the moment, we're doing all right. We can keep pushing and getting better, so, really, that's genuinely all I'm focused on right now."
