Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim is set to be handed a massive boost, with Lisandro Martinez poised to return from an ACL injury he sustained eight months ago in February. The Argentina international is now targeting a return before the end of October, as he looks to add to the mere 16 appearances he has made under Amorim's management thus far at Old Trafford.

England manager Thomas Tuchel would reportedly not be considered for the Manchester United job if Ruben Amorim is sacked at Old Trafford. Tuchel is 'fully expected' to see through his contract to after the 2026 World Cup, while the German was 'unimpressed' with the Red Devils' hiring process when he was previously contacted as a potential replacement for Erik ten Hag.

Manchester United are heading for a stormy few weeks behind closed doors, with reports claiming that crunch transfer talks have been scheduled with Kobbie Mainoo and Joshua Zirkzee ahead of the January window. Both players are said to be growing deeply frustrated by their limited minutes under boss Ruben Amorim, and are now demanding clarity on their futures before the turn of the year.

Manchester United title winner Michael Owen has taken aim at club legends Wayne Rooney and Gary Neville. The duo have criticised United boss Ruben Amorim for his stubbornness not to ditch the 3-4-2-1 setup, which has caused division among the fanbase. Owen though feels it is embarrassing to place the blame for United's poor season on the formation which Amorim used during his Sporting days.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe may not have been entirely truthful when insisting Manchester United had no plans to sack under-fire boss Ruben Amorim, according to body language expert Inbaal Honigman. The INEOS chief’s gestures and expressions reportedly revealed “tension” and “secrecy” during a recent interview, hinting that the club’s stance on Amorim’s future may not be as clear-cut as suggested.
