Born 28 July 1981 in Wallsend, Tyne & Wear, England. He is an English footballer who plays for Manchester United as a midfielder. He previously played for West Ham United and more recently Tottenham Hotspur.
Before the beginning of the 2004–05 season, Carrick then moved to Tottenham Hotspur for a fee of £2.75 million in order to play in the Premier League. The following two seasons at Tottenham were a major success for him as Spurs enjoyed an upturn in footballing fortunes with major investments in new players and a new management.
On 31 July 2006, Carrick moved to Manchester United. An initial bid of £10 million by United was rejected, though a later bid with a £14 million basic fee, potentially rising to £18.6m depending on club and player success, was accepted. This potentially makes Carrick the sixth most expensive player acquired by Manchester United at the time.
He was given the number 16 shirt for Manchester United, previously worn by former captain Roy Keane.
