Manchester United reportedly must pay 14 million euros to plunder Reuben Amorim as manager.
After a poor start to Man UTD’s season, when rival Manchester City beat 3-0 over the weekend, there was a lot of speculation about Amorim’s future.
The Red Devils were also drawn alongside Fulham, losing home to Arsenal so far this season, but League 2’s Grimsbytown has surprisingly knocked them out of the Carabao Cup.
According to Talksport journalist Alex Crook, according to X’s post below, Amorim is still safe for now, but we still don’t know how long he has to change…
Reports from Fichajes say Amorim will cost 14 million euros for the bag, so the club may not have made that leap yet.
Still, their reports cite various outlets that Amorim claims there are only three games left to save the job, so we could quickly see the change.
Should Manchester United stick to Reuben Amorim?
When Amorim took over at Old Trafford, he didn’t exactly inherit the simple situation, so none of his predecessors really carried it well in his post-seal Alex Ferguson days.
MUFC passed David Moet, Louis Van Girl, Jose Mourinho, Ole Gunner Solskier, Ralph Langnick and Eric Ten Hag before Amorim.
Still, Amorim’s side was particularly poor, with United finishing 15th in the Premier League table last season, losing to Tottenham in the Europa League final.
As Portuguese tacticians took over, their shape is there in the worst states of the league, and that certainly means it is worth thinking about possible alternatives.
