Man United eyeing 65-year-old coach as potential replacement for Amorim following FA Cup humiliation.
Ruben Amorim’s tenure at Manchester United is becoming increasingly challenging with each passing week.
Currently sitting 14th in the Premier League, the Red Devils were recently eliminated from the FA Cup by Fulham at Old Trafford. Under Amorim’s management, the team’s performances have declined, with their current form making the difficult era of Erik ten Hag seem more favorable in hindsight.
With no significant improvement in the team’s play, questions are arising about Amorim’s future at the club. Having joined from Sporting CP, where he was a top contender for the league title, his move to Manchester United has not delivered the expected results.
According to Fichajes, United are exploring potential replacements, considering Amorim’s struggles and inability to elevate the squad’s performance. Among the candidates reportedly being evaluated are former Germany coach Joachim Low, ex-Real Madrid boss Julen Lopetegui, and former Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri.
Additionally, Aston Villa’s Unai Emery is another name linked with the managerial position at Old Trafford. However, Amorim still has a chance to turn things around, especially if he can guide the team to Europa League glory, which could be his lifeline to securing his job.
