Overview
- Football365, citing Football Insider, reports Manchester United have set their sights on Aston Villa’s Unai Emery as a leading option if results do not improve, though Amorim is said to be safe for now.
- Former Premier League defender William Gallas said Amorim “looks lost” and questioned whether he will remain in charge until Christmas.
- United have one Premier League win from three matches and were knocked out of the Carabao Cup on penalties by League Two Grimsby Town.
- Last season’s 15th-place finish, their lowest since 1973-74, has heightened pressure for rapid progress under the current regime.
- Football365 reports United spent about £230m on signings including Benjamin Sesko, Bryan Mbeumo, Matheus Cunha and Senne Lammens, alongside significant squad turnover.
