Amorim Out! Man Utd Sack Coach After Tensions Flare
5 Jan
Summary
- Ruben Amorim sacked as Manchester United head coach after 14 months.
- Manager's departure follows growing tensions with Old Trafford hierarchy.
- Darren Fletcher will take interim charge for upcoming matches.
Manchester United has confirmed the dismissal of head coach Ruben Amorim, concluding his 14-month tenure. The decision was made reluctantly by the club's leadership in an effort to improve the team's Premier League standing.
The Portuguese manager's exit follows a period of escalating tensions with key figures at Old Trafford, notably director of football Jason Wilcox. Amorim was formally notified of his sacking on Monday morning after a meeting with Wilcox and chief executive Omar Berrada.
With Amorim no longer at the helm, Darren Fletcher has been appointed as the interim head coach. He will manage the team for their upcoming fixture against Burnley on Wednesday night, as the club seeks a renewed focus for the remainder of the season.
