Man Utd Back Amorim Despite Disastrous Season

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has publicly admitted embarrassment over the club's poor Premier League campaign, with United sitting 16th and suffering a record number of defeats. Despite these struggles, United have reached the Europa League final, their last opportunity to secure Champions League qualification and aid summer rebuilding plans. Amorim has called for an urgent change in mentality and culture, taking responsibility for the lack of progress and suggesting he should step aside if there is no swift improvement. However, the club's hierarchy, led by Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS, have decided to retain Amorim for another season regardless of the Europa League final result, tasking him with achieving a top-six finish. United will prioritize squad reinforcements, targeting players like Matheus Cunha and Liam Delap to better fit Amorim’s system. A review of Amorim’s position will still take place at season’s end, but multiple sources report he will not be sacked even if United lose the final.
