Manchester United appointed Ruben Amorim as their manager earlier in the season in order to get their stuttering campaign back on track.
They were struggling under the previous manager Erik ten Hag, and the Portuguese manager was brought in to steady the ship. So far, the decision has not worked out in favour of Manchester United and Amorim has struggled in the Premier League.
Manchester United find themselves 14th in the league table and they are already out of the English league cup and the FA Cup. A club of their stature is expected to push for trophies regularly and secure Champions League qualification. The opportunity to compete in the Champions League next season is clearly beyond them and it will be interesting to see if they can win the Europa League this season and end their campaign on a high.
Meanwhile, there have been speculations surrounding the future of the Portuguese manager. Manchester United have been linked with multiple managers in recent weeks, and it will be interesting to see if Amorim can hold onto his job beyond this season.
Man United to back Amorim despite struggles
According to a report from Give Me Sport, Manchester United have now made a firm decision on the future of the Portuguese manager and they are prepared to stick with him, even if the results do not improve immediately. It is evident that Manchester United trust him to turn things around, and it will be interesting to see if the Portuguese manager can deliver.
He has proven himself at Sporting CP before the move to England and there is no doubt that he is one of the best young managers around. Perhaps with a bit more time and more signings, he will be able to turn things around at Old Trafford. Manchester United have a mediocre squad and they will need quality players in order to compete with the elite clubs. It remains to be seen whether Manchester United are prepared to back their manager with quality signings during the summer transfer window.
