Overview
- After a 1-1 draw at Leeds, Ruben Amorim insisted he is Manchester United's manager rather than a head coach and said he will do the job for 18 months or until the board decides otherwise.
- He told the scouting department and the sporting director to do their jobs, complained about selective leaks, and referenced external criticism including comments from Gary Neville.
- Amorim said the January transfer window is not expected to change for United, with no conversations underway to alter the squad this month.
- He abruptly ended the press conference and left the room, with footage showing a swift exit following his remarks.
- Multiple outlets report growing tension with director of football Jason Wilcox over tactics and recruitment, while pundits warned the outburst could jeopardize his position as United sit around fifth in the Premier League.
