Manchester United is going through one of the most delicate moments in recent years. The decision to appoint Rúben Amorim as the coach has not yielded the expected results, and there is already talk at Old Trafford of a possible dismissal.

However, dismissing the Portuguese coach will not be an easy decision, as reported by British media, his departure could cost the club around 14 million euros. This figure adds pressure to a board that is already beginning to lose patience.

The Dismissal of Rúben Amorim Is a Disaster for Manchester United

The Portuguese arrived in Manchester on November 11, 2024, with the mission of restoring greatness to a team in decline. However, his numbers are concerning: only eight wins in 31 Premier League matches. An insufficient record for a club with the history and demands of the Red Devils. The recent elimination from the EFL Cup by the modest Grimsby Town from League Two and the poor start in the league with just four points have raised all alarms at Old Trafford.

The English press, led by 'The Mirror' and 'Daily Mail,' reports that the club's leadership has given Amorim a three-game ultimatum to turn the situation around. The upcoming matches against Chelsea, Brentford, and Sunderland present him with an opportunity. However, if he fails to achieve positive results, his continuity seems doomed.

The problem lies in the fact that dismissing the coach would be a massive blow to the club's finances. Amorim's contract includes a compensation clause amounting to 12 million pounds, which is equivalent to around 13.8 million euros. This situation poses a dilemma: retain a questioned coach or incur a million-pound expense that would affect future transfers in the transfer market.

Rúben Amorim and his multimillion-dollar dismissal

Meanwhile, the board is already compiling a list of potential replacements. It includes up to five names: Oliver Glasner, the current Crystal Palace coach; Andoni Iraola, who has impressed with Bournemouth; Marco Silva, the Fulham strategist; Mauricio Pochettino, now the United States national team coach; and Gareth Southgate, available since leaving England. Each candidate offers a different profile, although all share experience in English football or at an international level.

The pressure is at its peak, and the atmosphere at Old Trafford is becoming increasingly tense. Amorim remains true to his style, stating that he will only make changes when he deems it necessary, but his remarks after the defeat at the Etihad Stadium did not convince a fan base demanding immediate results.

United is at a crossroads. On one hand, it needs an urgent response to avoid definitively losing the season. On the other hand, dismissing the current coach would entail an outlay close to 14 million euros, a price tag too high even for a club with the financial might of the Red Devils. Amorim's future depends on three matches that are already being viewed as genuine finals at Old Trafford.
