Ruben Amorim has revealed he still believes Kobbie Mainoo is the "future of Manchester United", despite the 20-year-old's continued struggles for game time under the Portuguese at Old Trafford. Academy graduate Mainoo has been heavily linked with a move away from his boyhood club but Amorim suggested that he intends to keep the midfielder and believes that he still can thrive with the Red Devils.
Manchester United are reportedly considering a shock move for their former midfielder James Garner as they look to bolster their depleted options in the upcoming January transfer window. The Red Devils are weighing up whether to swoop for the Everton man as Ruben Amorim plots a midfield revamp which also includes breakout England star Elliot Anderson.
Mason Mount believes "there’s an opportunity" to still make England's 2026 World Cup squad as the Manchester United midfielder enjoys a resurgence under Ruben Amorim. After years disrupted by injury, inconsistency and a painful separation from Chelsea, the 26-year-old is finally enjoying a sustained run of starts that feels like progress rather than promise.
Ruben Amorim has confirmed there is still “no decision” on the futures of Harry Maguire and Casemiro, as Manchester United edge closer to a potentially delicate contract crossroads. Both players are approaching the final months of their current deals, leaving uncertainty hanging over two figures who have revived their form under the Portuguese head coach.
Manchester United will only allow players to leave in the January transfer window if replacements can be found, says head coach Ruben Amorim. The Portuguese has delivered the update ahead of the winter market opening on New Year’s Day, with Kobbie Mainoo and Joshua Zirkzee believed to be keen on departing Old Trafford in search of more playing time.
Former Manchester United winger Nani is adamant the disciplinary issues which current head coach Ruben Amorim is having to combat at the club would never have occurred under legendary boss Sir Alex Ferguson. The Scot was able to maintain order in the Red Devils dressing room by famously using the ‘hairdryer treatment’ when he felt a certain player had stepped out of line back in the day.
Ruben Amorim has reiterated Manchester United must avoid repeating past "mistakes" in the upcoming January transfer window by only signing players who they "know" want to play for the club. The Portuguese manager previously confirmed the Red Devils are prepared to enter the winter market if the "perfect" additions for the long term become available.
Ruben Amorim has been accused of "taking the p*ss" when it comes to his treatment of young midfielder Kobbie Mainoo. The 20-year-old has struggled for game time under Amorim and has been linked with a transfer away in a bid to get his career back on track. Former Manchester United wonderkid Ravel Morrison believes Mainoo should feature more and that Amorim is wrong to keep him on the bench.
Manchester United's reported stance on Kobbie Mainoo's future has been revealed, with Ruben Amorim seeing his midfield options reduced further after a serious injury to Bruno Fernandes. The playmaker suffered what has been described as a "soft tissue" problem that forced him to come off at half-time in United's 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa. The injury is expected to sideline Fernandes for several weeks, while Mainoo missed the Villa game entirely due to a calf issue.
Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has defended Leny Yoro, Ayden Heaven and Benjamin Sesko following his side’s 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa on Sunday. United left Villa Park without a point after Morgan Rogers scored twice to secure a seventh consecutive Premier League win for the hosts. The loss means the Red Devils missed out on the chance to creep closer to the Champions League spots.
Manchester United are a better footballing side under Ruben Amorim, that is undeniable. They move the ball far quicker and with a purpose that was largely lacking under the Portuguese manager's bumbling predecessor Erik ten Hag, whose poor decision-making set the club back years. Fans are getting proper entertainment in exchange for their money and time again, which means Amorim has hit the minimum requirement 13 months into his reign.
Ruben Amorim fears Manchester United are going to “struggle” after club captain Bruno Fernandes was added to their list of absentees, but the Portuguese will not be demanding that club bosses make funds available in the January transfer window. Instead, in a bleak warning to supporters, the Red Devils are planning to battle through with what they have.
Ruben Amorim has revealed Bruno Fernandes suffered 'soft tissue' damage during Manchester United's 2-1 loss at Aston Villa. The battling Red Devils were undone by two fine strikes from Morgan Rogers, which came either side of Matheus Cunha's equaliser. But ultimately, the visitors' afternoon was overshadowed by the injury picked up by their near-ever present captain.
Ruben Amorim says Manchester United are ready to enter the January transfer market but only if the “perfect” player is available. The Red Devils continue to be linked with a host of central midfielders but the Portuguese head coach has suggested the club are even prepared to strengthen in another area of the pitch, provided the signing is one for the long term.
Manchester United have been told to sign Borussia Dortmund star Karim Adeyemi to replace Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo during their Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) absence. The Red Devils are bracing themselves for a difficult festive period as the AFCON threatens to strip Ruben Amorim of a crucial spine on the right side of his team. With the tournament in Morocco beginning over Christmas and running until mid-January, the absences of three key squad members, including Noussair Mazraoui, are expected to leave a significant dent in their resources.
Manchester United to advance with Antoine Semenyo interest after Patrick Dorgu was left "ruined" by tough Old Trafford experience.
