Overview
- Following a 1-1 result at Leeds, Ruben Amorim said he came to be Manchester United’s manager rather than head coach and that this will stand for 18 months or until the board decides otherwise.
- He insisted he will not resign and vowed to continue until a successor is appointed.
- Amorim told the scouting department and sporting director Jason Wilcox to do their jobs, with reporting pointing to a power struggle over control.
- He refused to discuss the transfer budget after a reported £65 million move for Antoine Semenyo was dropped, and multiple outlets say January reinforcements are unlikely.
- He criticized media voices, referencing Gary Neville, as questions over authority coincide with United’s inconsistent form.
