Object lost after include in function - php

Question

I create a new object $Manager in my index.php($Manager = new Manager()). After that I do some routing etc. to eventually end up in a controller. That controller includes the view of choice.
Now; I'd like to use $Manager in that view, without having to assign a global $Manager in the method that includes it.
My controller looks like this:(stripped all the other methods)
<?php
Class PostController extends Controller {
public function home () {
$items = $this->getItems();
require_once(ROOT . 'application/items/post/home.view.php');
}
}
?>
In that home.view.php file I include view.view.php in a loop and do:
<?= $Manager->currentPageItem(); ?>
but it gives the error:
<b>Notice</b>: Undefined variable: Manager in <b>C:\xampp\htdocs\blurp\application\items\post\view.view.php</b> on line <b>4</b><br />
I've tried making $Manager a global in the index.php, to no avail. adding global $Manager to the home method works; but is not my solution of choice(Since every method would need that than)
How can I get includes from functions to keep using global variables like my $Manager?

Instead of using globals use dependency injection
//Your controller
class PostController extends Controller {
public function home() {
$items = $this->getItems();
require_once(ROOT . 'application/items/post/home.view.php');
}
}
//Somewhere in low end part of code
class Controller extends BaseClass {
}
abstract class BaseClass {
public $manager;
/**
* Passing dependencies
*/
public function init(Manager $manager) {
$this->manager = $manager;
}
}
//Index, router, whatever
$controller = new PostController;
$controller->init(new Manager);
$controller->home();
//View
echo $this->manager->currentPageItem();
