Pochettino has signed a two-and-a-half year deal at Old Trafford, marking his fourth stint in English football following spells with Southampton, Tottenham and Chelsea.
The Argentine succeeds Carrick - who was sacked on Thursday - after overseeing a disappointing start to the Premier League season, with Man United sitting in the relegation zone after winning just one of their opening 10 matches.
Pochettino, however, will not start work as Man Utd boss straight away as he is set to continue in his role as USMNT manager for their CONCACAF Nations League two-legged quarter-final against Haiti.
That said, the appointment does mean Pochettino will be in the dugout at Anfield next Sunday to take charge of his first Man United game against bitter rivals Liverpool.
