Overview
- Sir Jim Ratcliffe said on The Business podcast that Ruben Amorim will be judged over three years, not on short‑term results.
- Asked about potential pressure from the majority owners, he said a Glazer demand to sack the head coach "is not going to happen."
- Ratcliffe defended about 450 job cuts and ending subsidised staff lunches, arguing the club had become bloated and needed a sustainable footing.
- United spent more than £200 million on summer signings, yet early‑season form remains inconsistent after last year’s 15th‑place finish and a Carabao Cup loss to Grimsby.
- Saudi official Turki Al‑Sheikh claimed on social media that a sale to a new investor is at an advanced stage, a statement not corroborated by the club.
