Manchester United officials meet players to discuss Ruben Amorim

Manchester United are said to be going through a sensitive period of internal evaluation as concerns grow over Ruben Amorim’s future at the club.

according to espnclub executives have already held secret but meaningful talks with senior players to gauge their views on the Portuguese manager’s tenure and recent performance.

Meanwhile, it is understood that the club’s hierarchy is close to making a decision on whether to side with Amorim or initiate a managerial change.

The unfolding situation suggests that the coming weeks could be crucial in determining the direction of United’s season.

Man United officials hold a meeting with the players

The fact that United chiefs felt it necessary to consult with key members of the squad is telling. It shows awareness of the turmoil and a desire to gauge whether the locker room support for Amorim remains intact.

Senior figures, perhaps captains and long-serving players, have been asked about morale, confidence in tactics, and internal communication.

It is not surprising considering the way United have played this season and struggled to perform under Amorim. The Portuguese manager has been stubborn in adjusting his tactics to the demands of English football, constantly expressing confidence in his philosophy.

CEO Omar Berrada and Director of Football Jason Wilcox held talks with players at the club, including club captain Bruno Fernandes to find out how they felt about the manager.

Ruben Amorim has the support of the team

After consulting with the players and the team, the executives believe that the team fully supports Amorim and believes in his project and ideas.

That should translate on the field now. United have suffered defeats to Arsenal, Manchester City and Brentford in the league this season, while a shock exit from the Carabao Cup at the hands of League Two side Grimsby Town has left the fan base with confidence.

The good thing for Amorim is that he has the support of the players despite not making massive improvements at the club, but it all depends on his team’s results and position in the Premier League in the next few weeks.

If Amorim shows the exit door at the club, Xavi Hernandez is waiting in the wings to take his job.
