Ruben Amorim is no longer Manchester United manager. With a note on its website, the English club announced the dismissal of the 40-year-old Portuguese coach after a draw against Leeds United which followed the one against bottom Wolverhampton. The Red Devils are 17 points behind leaders Arsenal and are coming off a difficult December, with just one win in their last five games. Amorim, in addition to the results, also pays for the attack on the club. “I want it to be clear that I am here to be a manager and not simply a coach. It will be like this for the next 18 months or until the management decides to change.” Prophetic words in light of the facts.

Current youth coach and former Manchester United midfielder Darren Fletcher will lead the team against Burnley on Wednesday. For the future, however, the names of are mentioned Marescajust sacked by Chelsea, of the former England manager Southgate and the Spaniard Xavi, formerly of Barcelona.
