This information was first reported by reputable journalist David Ornstein. He stated that the Manchester United board had decided to sack manager Ruben Amorim due to the team's poor performance and workplace conflicts.
This decision was made less than a day after the 1-1 draw between Man United and Leeds United in the 20th round of the Premier League.
This draw marks the fourth time Man United have dropped points in their last five league matches, making their pursuit of a top-four finish increasingly difficult.
After 20 rounds, Man United currently have only 31 points, 3 points behind Liverpool in 4th place. This performance is even worse considering they are not playing in any continental competitions this season.
Earlier, Man United had also been eliminated from the League Cup after losing to fourth-division side Grimsby Town – a shocking result.
Manager Amorim was appointed by Man United on November 11, 2024, replacing his predecessor Erik Ten Hag.
Since taking over the team, the Portuguese strategist has completely failed in his efforts to revive Man United. The "Red Devils" finished the season empty-handed and in 15th place in the Premier League.
Manchester United's poor performance has heightened tensions between manager Amorim and the club's leadership.
In the press conference following the draw against Leeds United, manager Amorim stated that he is a "manager," not simply a "coach."
This statement was in response to the club's management, after coach Amorim was asked to change the familiar 3-4-3 formation and use the team's traditional 4-3-3 formation instead.
These conflicts became the final straw, leading to the Old Trafford management's decision to sack manager Amorim. It is understood that former player Darren Fletcher will be the interim manager of Manchester United.
