Manchester United may still make a late decision on Harry Amass before the transfer window closes, even after an encouraging summer for the youngster around the first team. Michael Carrick made it clear that Amass remains part of the picture at Old Trafford, while also admitting this stage of the window can still bring a change in direction.
- Amass could still leave Manchester United before the window shuts.
- Carrick said this stage of the transfer window can bring “different scenarios”.
- Carrick said Amass has done really well in pre-season.
Harry Amass’ Current Manchester United Situation
Harry Amass is still a Manchester United player, and his recent involvement throughout the club’s July and August 2026 pre-season schedule underlines that his future remains an open question for the club rather than a foregone conclusion. Carrick’s comments left the door open to a possible departure, but they did not establish whether any move would be temporary or permanent.
Manchester United have already used Amass in recent first-team fixtures across pre-season and into the start of the new campaign. Carrick’s words were balanced as much by praise as by uncertainty. He said there are “different scenarios” at this point in the window, but also added that United have been “really pleased” with Amass and that he has “done really well in pre-season”.
Amass’ Senior Experience and Development Path
With Manchester United having completed pre-season and started their Premier League campaign, any decision on Amass has become a pressing call regarding his pathway rather than a distant possibility. His recent match involvement for United through July and August, including an early-season Premier League appearance, shows he has remained close to the senior group during this period.
Amass already has meaningful senior experience behind him. In 2025, he made 22 Championship appearances, including 21 starts and 1,881 minutes, and he also boasts earlier senior Manchester United appearances in the Premier League and UEFA Europa League.
That background helps explain why United must still weigh which route gives Amass the best chance of minutes and progression before the deadline passes.
