Newcastle United fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation linking Manchester United first-team coach Michael Carrick with a move to the Magpies.

According to TEAMtalk, United coach Carrick is a contender for the Newcastle managerial job should Rafael Benitez leave at the end of the season.

Benitez is out of contract at Newcastle in the summer of 2019, and the former Liverpool manager has yet to sign a new contract with the Premier League.

The Chronicle, though, has claimed that Newcastle do not have Carrick on their radar as a potential successor to Benitez.

Newcastle fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation regarding Carrick.

Below are some of the best comments:

Benitez is one of the best managers in the world, and it is going to be hard for Newcastle to find someone as good as him should he leave in the summer.

It would be best for Newcastle if Benitez signs a new contract and he is given transfer funds to make the team good enough to compete for a top-10 finish in the Premier League next season.
