Ruben Amorim set to leave Man United, successor lined up | OneFootball

Ruben Amorim suffered another defeat in the Premier League, his third in six matches, after losing 3-1 away to Brentford. After the victory against Chelsea, the Portuguese coach is back on a losing streak and in England, potential replacements for the managerial position at Manchester United are already being considered.

Following Manchester United’s defeat, Gareth Southgate has been mentioned as a possible replacement for Ruben Amorim, whose position as head coach of the Red Devils is increasingly at risk. The English manager has been without a club since leaving the England national team and is now the favorite for the role.

The information comes from Ben Jacobs and Alex Crook of ‘Talk Sport’, who also report that Southgate has been in contact with Jim Ratcliffe, minority shareholder of Manchester United. However, no decision has yet been made regarding Ruben Amorim’s future at the Manchester club.

Apparently, the Manchester United directors may wait until the next international break to decide whether Ruben Amorim will remain as head coach of the Red Devils, with Gareth Southgate ready to take over if the decision does not go in favor of the Portuguese coach.

Having almost completed a year as Manchester United’s manager, Ruben Amorim has fallen far short of expectations. Currently, the main obstacle to his dismissal is the compensation he is entitled to, since Amorim would be owed around 14 million euros by the Red Devils if he is sacked.
