The tension at Old Trafford has reached boiling point after Manchester United CEO Omar Berrada openly admitted that the club already has agreements in place with two top managers to replace Ruben Amorim if results do not improve.
Speaking with brutal honesty, Berrada stated:
“We want to stand by him, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have a plan or his replacement. As we speak, these two top managers have agreed and are ready to take over from him. He has Sunday’s game vs Chelsea for his future to be decided. We have invested a lot, and this is not the results we want.”
The admission confirms that United are actively preparing for life after Amorim, with Zinedine Zidane and former club hero Ole Gunnar Solskjaer both reportedly lined up. Zidane, a three-time Champions League-winning coach, is seen as the elite choice to restore United’s winning pedigree, while Solskjaer remains a sentimental favorite among supporters for his passion and past tenure.
Amorim’s future now hangs by a thread, with Sunday’s blockbuster clash against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge set to decide whether he continues or becomes the latest managerial casualty in United’s turbulent post-Ferguson era.
Fans are already divided. Some are eager to see Zidane’s tactical brilliance brought to Old Trafford, while others still hold loyalty to Solskjaer and believe he deserves a second chance.
What is certain is that patience has worn thin. For United supporters, Sunday will mark a turning point—relief if Amorim secures victory, or excitement if a new era begins under Zidane or Solskjaer.
The stakes have never been higher.
