Nearly two months after leaving United, Ruben Amorim gets great news | OneFootball

The contract termination process of Ruben Amorim, dismissed at the beginning of this calendar year, could become even more costly for Manchester United. In a report sent to the New York Stock Exchange, the English club states that it "provisioned 15.9 million pounds (18.17 million euros), which represents the maximum potential amount the British club might have to release as compensation to the coach and his staff". This amount is higher than what was disclosed at the time of the termination, which pointed to around 11 million.

In the report containing the results of the second quarter (October to December) of the current season, the Red Devils also mention, in a "post-report closing date event", 7.2 million euros in amortizations - related to the hiring of the former coach from Sporting - which were removed from the balances, therefore recognized as a loss.

The document does not explain the reason that might lead Man. United to have to pay the maximum amount, but according to the English press, it is related to Amorim's professional future, who remains without a club and, therefore, on the payroll of the Old Trafford emblem.

It should be remembered that the Portuguese coach 'left' Manchester United in sixth place in the Premier League. At the time, statements made after the 1-1 draw against Leeds United were decisive for the outcome between the two parties. With 31 points gathered in 20 matches, the Red Devils were in the fight for direct qualification to the Champions League, but far from the top positions.

Under the technical command of Manchester United, Ruben Amorim conducted 63 matches, in which he recorded 24 wins, 18 draws, and 21 losses. The coach reached a Europa League final, having been defeated by Tottenham, thus missing out on the Champions League.
