Manchester United have been urged to dismiss a staff member following criticism of their handling of the transition to new manager Ruben Amorim. Concerns have surfaced regarding the club’s recruitment decisions and the lack of resources available for Amorim’s tenure. Manchester United have been advised to dismiss an employee over a lingering problem that new manager Ruben Amorim has inherited from Erik ten Hag’s tenure.

Manchester United’s leadership faces criticism for their £200 million summer spending spree, with calls for changes within their recruitment team. Under the INEOS ownership, United secured high-profile signings, including Leny Yoro, Matthijs de Ligt, Manuel Ugarte, Joshua Zirkzee, and Noussair Mazraoui, marking what appeared to be the next phase of Erik ten Hag’s vision.

However, Ten Hag’s tenure abruptly ended in October, just months after signing a contract extension. Ruben Amorim has since taken charge but reportedly faces a limited transfer budget due to the summer’s lavish spending.

Veteran broadcaster Richard Keys has openly criticized United’s management for allowing Ten Hag to oversee significant expenditure before his dismissal. Keys expressed his frustration on social media, stating, *“It was a monumental mistake to back Ten Hag with over £200 million, leaving Amorim with limited resources. Someone in the decision-making team should be held accountable.”*

Despite external backlash, United’s recruitment team remains confident in their summer business. Reports suggest the board, including Omar Berrada and Dan Ashworth, believes only one signing—Leny Yoro—was acquired above market value.

However, Amorim may need to make tough decisions to generate funds for future transfers. The club is reportedly open to selling underperforming players like Antony, while January offers the last opportunity to secure fees for expiring contracts, including Christian Eriksen and Victor Lindelof.

With Amorim likely to demand greater financial backing next summer, the pressure is mounting on United to balance effective recruitment with fiscal responsibility.
