Manchester United Sack Ruben Amorim After Disastrous Start
Manchester United have officially parted ways with manager Ruben Amorim, ending his brief and troubled spell at Old Trafford. The dismissal follows a string of poor results that left the club hovering near the bottom of the Premier League and sparked growing frustration among fans.
Amorim, once regarded as one of Europe’s brightest young coaches, failed to impose his style on the Red Devils. Despite significant backing in the transfer market — including the arrivals of Benjamin Sesko, Matheus Cunha, Diego Leon, and Bryan Mbeumo — United showed little progress. Performances remained inconsistent, defensive issues persisted, and the team’s identity remained unclear.
The breaking point came after a disappointing draw with Fulham, which left United with just one point from their opening games. Club sources say the board felt they could not risk another wasted season, especially with the threat of finishing mid-table once again.
Amorim’s departure continues a turbulent cycle of managerial changes in the post-Sir Alex Ferguson era. The search for his successor is already underway, with Oliver Glasner, Gareth Southgate, Marco Silva, and Zinedine Zidane among the early names linked to the role.
For Amorim, the sacking underlines the unforgiving reality of Premier League management. For Manchester United, it marks yet another reset in their ongoing struggle to restore former glories.
The big question remains: Who will dare to take on the challenge of Old Trafford next?
