Despite pressure from Ricardo and Tim Howard, Carroll has remained the number one goalkeeper at Old Trafford.
Media reports had suggested that he may well sign a contract extension this week after recieving certain assurances over his future as number one from Sir Alex Ferguson.
However it seems that these promises were not forth-coming and the goalkeeper is free to find a new club.
Carroll's last appearance for United was in the F.A. Cup Final defeat to Arsenal.
He may well become a target of Paul Jewell's who has made no secret of his desire for a new goalkeeper.
Ricardo, Ramon Calliste, Ben Collett, Daniel Nardiello, David Poole,Paul Tierney and Wigan lad Lee Lawrence - have also been released.
