United are just finalising the details of his switch from Lokomotiv Moscow.

And Carrick says the new boss will benefit from the work done by former boss Ole Solskjaer over nearly three years in charge.

Carrick said: “I think that’s one of the biggest things in Ole’s time as manager, creating and building an environment, backroom staff and a culture within the group that is not obvious to the eye.

“You can see we finished well last season, but once the results started going, it went pretty quickly, which is a shame because everything can get overshadowed.

“It’s still there and the backroom staff and environment has helped me an awful lot this week. What happens next it’s there for sure and it’s a great starting point.”

Carrick would not comment specifically on Rangnick claiming all his focus is on the tough task of taking on League leaders Chelsea at Stamford Bridge after winning his first game in charge 2-0 at Villarreal on Tuesday.

He said: “As I’m sitting here now I’m preparing the team for the game, I haven’t got any more news to share with you on that front.

“I think as you can appreciate this week’s been quite busy already.

“I’m preparing the team as best I can and I’ve given everything I can, anything after Sunday is not in my thoughts at the moment.”
