Club Statement

Manchester United have released a statement following their decision to part company with Amorim. It reads:

“Ruben Amorim has departed his role as Head Coach of Manchester United.

Ruben was appointed in November 2024 and led the team to a UEFA Europa League Final in Bilbao in May.

With Manchester United sitting sixth in the Premier League, the club’s leadership has reluctantly made the decision that it is the right time to make a change. This will give the team the best opportunity of the highest possible Premier League finish.

The club would like to thank Ruben for his contribution to the club and wishes him well for the future.

Darren Fletcher will take charge of the team against Burnley on Wednesday.”

What Next For Manchester United?

While Darren Fletcher will take charge of the Red Devils on an interim basis, the search for a new manager will undoubtedly be well underway. According to BetVictor, should Fletcher not secure the role on a permanent basis, then Enzo Maresca, who recently departed Chelsea, is currently the favourite, followed by Crystal Palace’s Oliver Glasner and former England boss Gareth Southgate.
