www.worldsoccer.comI don’t have live access to current news databases in this moment. Here’s what I can share based on recent, well-documented history up to 2024 and typical patterns around Carlos Queiroz and Manchester United.
Direct answer
- There’s no current, credible report indicating Carlos Queiroz is actively involved with Manchester United in 2026. Most of the widely circulated items about Queiroz and United date back to earlier periods (notably his stints in the mid-2000s and 2011), and none of the recent coverage places him in a Manchester United role today.
Context and background
- Carlos Queiroz has had multiple spells linked to Manchester United as an assistant coach, notably returning to Old Trafford on a couple of occasions in the 2000s and early 2010s. These moves were tied to Sir Alex Ferguson’s tenure and were covered extensively at the time .
- Over the last decade, Queiroz has been more prominently involved with national teams (e.g., Portugal earlier in his career, and later national teams such as Iran), and there hasn’t been sustained reporting of him occupying a managerial or coaching role at Manchester United in the 2020s or 2025–2026 period .
- If you’re looking for the latest, most reliable updates, checking the club’s official communications or reputable outlets like major sports news sites (BBC Sport, Sky Sports, The Times, The Athletic) would give you the current status of any coaching staff changes at Manchester United .
