Manchester United Announce New Coach Just Hours After Brentford Humiliation – Board Parts Ways With Rúben Amorim

 

In a development that has sent shockwaves through English football, Manchester United have acted with unprecedented speed following their 3–1 defeat to Brentford. Less than 30 minutes ago, the club’s board finalized its decision to part ways with manager Rúben Amorim, and according to insiders, an official announcement of a new head coach is imminent.

 

 

 

From Disappointment to Drastic Action

 

Sunday’s loss at the Gtech Community Stadium was more than just a bad day at the office. It was seen by the hierarchy as the latest evidence of a team in freefall, despite heavy summer investment and bold promises of a new era under Amorim.

 

Sources close to the board describe an emergency meeting called immediately after the match, with senior figures – including co-owners INEOS – dialling in remotely to discuss the future of the Portuguese coach.

 

 

 

Amorim’s Short and Turbulent Tenure

 

Amorim, who arrived from Sporting CP with a glowing reputation for tactical innovation, had been seen as the man to bring youthful energy and modern ideas to Old Trafford. But after a run of poor results, controversial team selections, and public criticism from ex-players like Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand, patience appears to have run out.

 

Only months into his reign, Amorim’s United found themselves out of the title race, struggling in Europe, and increasingly at odds with supporters.

 

 

 

New Coach Already Agreed

 

While the club has not yet made a formal statement, multiple journalists report that United’s executives had been discreetly sounding out replacements even before the Brentford match. One insider described the agreement with Amorim’s successor as “90% done” before full-time, with “final signatures” completed shortly after the loss.

 

This means United’s official channels are expected to confirm the identity of the new coach later tonight or first thing tomorrow morning. The swift move is aimed at calming fans and giving the incoming manager maximum time to prepare for the next fixture.

 

 

 

Fan Reaction: Relief and Shock

 

On social media, the reaction to the news was mixed but intense. Many fans expressed relief at the board finally taking decisive action, while others questioned the timing and worried about yet another managerial reset:

 

“Couldn’t they wait until the season ends? We’re just turning into Chelsea with this churn,” one supporter posted.

 

“At least the board is listening. Amorim was finished. Let’s back whoever comes next,” wrote another.

 

 

 

 

What Happens Next

 

The announcement of the new coach will come with immediate speculation over tactics, transfers, and which players will benefit or be sidelined. There’s also talk of a “mini-clear-out” in January to align the squad with the incoming manager’s philosophy.

 

United’s next match now takes on enormous significance — not just in terms of points but as the first glimpse of yet another new era at Old Trafford.

 

 

 

A Club at a Crossroads

 

For all the headlines, the situation underlines a stark reality: since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in 2013, Manchester United have struggled to find a long-term manager capable of marrying results with style. Each appointment, hailed as the start of a new chapter, has ended in frustration.

 

Whether the next coach can finally end that cycle remains to be seen. For now, the club is bracing for another dramatic night as the official announcement drops.
