The former Blackburn Rovers and West Ham United striker was a shock appointment for Manchester United at the time. This was due to the fact that McCarthy had been clubless for a while. The former Bafana Bafana star was sacked as head coach of DStv Premiership side AmaZulu FC. So for him to go from the wilderness to a first-team coaching role of his dream club, was massive news.
McCarthy set to leave Manchester United
McCarthy’s time at Manchester United has been largely successful. In his first season at the club, the Red Devils finished third on the log. Additionally, he was able to win silverware via the Carabao Cup. He also helped the side reach the FA Cup final. During that season, he was also praised for improving the forward line. England international, Marcus Rashford had a purple patch after the 2022 FIFA World Cup, and credited the former FC Porto hitman for playing his part in that.
This past season has been tougher for McCarthy and Manchester United, however. The club finished eighth and with a negative goal difference. But in the end, they were able to win yet another piece of silverware through the FA Cup. Now according to reports from The Mirror, that could be his last trophy at the club.
Chiefs links resurface
“McCarthy’s contract expires at the end of the season and as it stands, he is not being offered an extended deal with Man United. The former Wigan star has yet to reveal where he will go next, but has been linked with a return to South Africa with Kaizer Chiefs. McCarthy’s exit is just the latest bold move from Sir JimRatcliffe since his arrival at the club. He has already called on club staff to resign should they not wish to return to office-based working.” Wrote the publication.
On Wednesday, this publication reported that should McCarthy leave Manchester United, he would gladly take the vacant Chiefs job.
