"Manchester United" has sacked Ruben Amorim


The decision to dismiss Ruben Amorim was made after the team's poor performance, which was notably reflected in the draw against "Leeds United" (1:1). On that day, the Portuguese coach emotionally expressed his thoughts about the future in his position.

According to information released by the club, the current sixth place of "United" in the Premier League prompted changes to improve the chances of a higher position in the championship. At the moment, the team is 17 points behind the leader "Arsenal" after 20 matches played.

Amorim took charge of "Manchester United" in November 2024, succeeding Erik ten Hag. His debut season was unsuccessful for the club, finishing in 15th place in the EPL — the worst result since 1974 — as well as a defeat in the Europa League final against "Tottenham".

Under Amorim's leadership, the team played a total of 63 matches, of which 24 ended in victories, 18 in draws, and 21 in defeats. The win percentage in the Premier League was only 32%, which is the worst record among all the club's coaches in the Premier League era.

The next match against "Burnley" will be played by "Manchester United" under the management of Darren Fletcher, who is temporarily taking over as head coach. The club has already begun the search for a new manager.

Since Alex Ferguson's departure in 2013, "Manchester United" has changed several coaches, but the last time the club lifted a trophy was 13 years ago.
