Manchester United awards Michael Carrick testimonial match
The midfielder was rewarded today with a testimonial to commemorate his 11 years of service at the club.
A United XI from the 2008 Champions League winning squad will take on a Carrick All-Stars team on June 4 at Old Trafford.
But the 25-year-old's future has remained under serious question.
Carrick admitted he will consider retirement if an agreement is not reached to stay with Manchester United.
The ex-England international has been tabled a new 12-month deal
However, according to The Sun, his career is not over yet as the ex-England international has been tabled a new 12-month deal.
And it is said Carrick is prepared to sign on.
Jose Mourinho rarely used the holding midfielder at the start of the season, suggesting he may not have been part of the manager's plans.
But Carrick's importance has been highlighted throughout the campaign, and Mourinho now wants to keep him for next season.
The club value their long-term asset off the pitch too.
United are said to see Carrick as a role model to younger players, helping them develop.
As one of the senior spokesman of the squad, Mourinho does not appear ready to lose him.
