In the next 24 to 48 hours, Manchester United hopes to achieve an arrangement with Lokomotiv Moscow to release Ralf Rangnick as the club's interim manager.
Rangnick is currently the Russian club's manager of sports and development, and negotiations between the clubs have been fruitful.
Rangnick, 63, will apply for a work permit once a deal is finalised, with the German anticipated to stay at United in a consulting capacity for two years after the season ends.
After attending his current club's Europa League match against Lazio on Thursday, he is currently in Moscow.
Rangnick's interim term at Old Trafford will begin with no specific game in mind.
Michael Carrick is still set to lead Manchester United in Sunday's Premier League match against Chelsea, which will be shown live on Sky Sports. United's next league match will be on November 2 against Arsenal.
Following the dismissal of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on Sunday, Carrick was appointed as a caretaker manager as United tried to recruit an interim manager.
The former Manchester United midfielder supervised the 2-0 win over Villarreal on Tuesday, ensuring the club's progression to the Champions League's last 16 round.
Former Barcelona and Lyon head coaches Ernesto Valverde and Rudi Garcia were also considered for the interim position.
United intends to recruit a permanent manager at the end of the season, and Mauricio Pochettino of PSG is their first candidate, with Ajax head coach Erik ten Hag also on the list.
