Football365 lists Carrick, Sage and Le Bris as possible international-break sackings

Michael Carrick at Manchester United, Pierre Sage at Crystal Palace and Regis Le Bris at Sunderland are the managers Football365 has flagged as potentially most at risk of losing their jobs during the upcoming international break, in a report published on 8 November 2026. The outlet framed the piece around the last ten Premier League managers dismissed during international breaks, noting that the November pause is seen as a convenient moment for clubs to change coaches before the festive schedule and the January transfer window.

The report is speculative rather than confirmed, presenting the three names as candidates to watch depending on weekend results. It also mentioned Alvaro Arbeloa at Fulham as a manager who might have been under pressure but whose side has recently improved.

Among the past cases cited, Igor Tudor left Tottenham by mutual consent in March 2026 after less than two months in charge, with Roberto De Zerbi later appointed and keeping Spurs up. Nottingham Forest parted with Nuno Espirito Santo in September 2025 after three games, and Antonio Conte departed Tottenham during the March 2023 break. The list also included Claudio Ranieri at Watford, Dean Smith at Aston Villa, Daniel Farke at Norwich, Xisco Munoz at Watford, Mauricio Pochettino at Tottenham, Javi Gracia at Watford and Slavisa Jokanovic at Fulham.
