Overview

• ESPN reporting says CEO Omar Berrada and director of football Jason Wilcox held informal talks with players, including captain Bruno Fernandes, and believe the squad still supports Ruben Amorim.
• Manchester United’s 2-0 win over Sunderland eased pressure on the head coach, with Rio Ferdinand saying a defeat could have prompted serious discussions about sacking him.
• Crystal Palace’s Oliver Glasner remains heavily linked in media as a potential successor, yet multiple reports indicate he favors Bayern Munich and is seeking a release clause if he signs new terms.
• Palace midfielder Adam Wharton noted Glasner has not been offered a new deal and said “anything could happen,” while Amorim received public backing from Mason Mount and a softened stance from Wayne Rooney.
• Any decision on Amorim’s future would involve INEOS leadership and the club’s owners, as the coach remains under contract through 2027 and continues to insist results will decide his fate.
