Manchester United Said to Rule Out Tuchel as Mid-Season Replacement

Sir Jim Ratcliffe reiterates a three-year evaluation for the current manager.

Overview

  • The Sun reports Manchester United will not consider England coach Thomas Tuchel if they remove Ruben Amorim during the season, despite previous talks with Tuchel before his FA appointment.
  • Sources cited by the report say Tuchel was unimpressed by United’s past process; his England deal runs through the 2026 World Cup and he is expected to see it out.
  • Ratcliffe publicly stated this week that Amorim should be judged over three years, stressing patience even as he acknowledged the results-driven nature of the job.
  • Pundit Scott Minto told talkSPORT he hears Tuchel is not particularly enjoying international management and predicted he could take over at Old Trafford at season’s end, which remains speculative.
  • Tuchel has started strongly with England, logging six wins in seven matches including a 3-0 victory over Wales, while Amorim’s United have 21 losses in 50 games with 10 wins from 34 in the Premier League.
