Ruben Amorim made a bold statement during the press conference following the draw with Leeds, effectively making clear his stance in the escalating internal conflict at Old Trafford.
I came here to be the manager of Manchester United, not just the head coach. I'm not Conte, not Tuchel, and not Mourinho, but I am the manager of this club. This will continue for 18 months or until the board decides otherwise. I'm not going to leave on my own, said Amorim.
According to talkSPORT, tensions between Amorim and sporting director Jason Wilcox have noticeably intensified. The club believes that the coach lacks tactical flexibility and has made it clear that there will be no significant squad reinforcement in the winter transfer window—despite earlier promises.
Amorim himself is reportedly disappointed that the management has changed its stance on transfers. Amid these disagreements, there is increasing talk that Manchester United could once again be searching for a new head coach as early as next summer.
