Carlton's president has refused to confirm Michael Voss will coach the club in 2026 despite being contracted.
Voss' future has come into question as the Blues' season nosedives after losing their last two matches to North Melbourne and Port Adelaide.
The Carlton coach's current contract expires at the end of next season, but club president Robert Priestley made it clear that the three-time premiership will have his position reviewed before 2026.
While Voss is not specifically mentioned in the letter, Priestley all but committed to Voss coaching out the season, but vowed that 'calm, rational and considered decisions' would be made in the off-season.

“The Club has been finalising the remaining stages of this transition and can confirm that Graham Wright will officially assume the role of Chief Executive Officer on 15 August,” a letter from Priestley to Carlton members said.
“Current CEO Brian Cook will continue to support the Club in an advisory capacity until mid-October, ensuring a smooth and considered handover.
“We are confident that Graham’s leadership, supported by the collective, will position the Club strongly for the coming years.
“While the Club is making strong progress across many areas of the organisation, clearly our on-field performance is not where we want it to be.
“With eight rounds remaining in the AFL season, we are not wasting any time in getting the most out of this period. Our focus is firmly fixed on maximising these weeks to ensure at the end of the season, we will make calm, rational and considered decisions that take the Club forward.”
Carlton will once again be in primetime this week as they take on league-leaders Collingwood at the MCG on Friday night.
