Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has reportedly been given just three games to save his job after a dismal start to the new season. The Portuguese has overseen the Red Devils' worst start to a Premier League campaign for 33 years and now he is under increasing pressure to keep his role. There was much excitement when he joined the club 10 months ago, but that optimism is fading fast.

Ex-Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has reportedly rejected a return to one of his old clubs in a bid to protect his finances following his sudden departure from Bayer Leverkusen. Ten Hag returned to management in the summer after being sacked by the Red Devils last October, but only lasted two leagues games in the BayArena hot seat.

Erik ten Hag has been approached regarding a shock return to one of his former clubs. The ex-Manchester United boss finds himself out of work again after seeing his spell at Bayer Leverkusen cut brutally short. The Dutch tactician is mulling over what to do next, with one invitation having already been received that would have taken him back to his homeland.

Bayer Leverkusen managing director Fernando Carro admitted the club made a mistake in hiring Erik ten Hag, but claims they reacted in a timely manner by sacking the Dutch coach after just two matches. That was followed by the appointment of former Denmark national team manager Kasper Hjulmand, who guided Leverkusen to a 3-1 win against Eintracht Frankfurt in his first game in charge.

Manchester United have been told that a signing during Erik ten Hag's era is a "big wet blanket" who "does nothing" for Ruben Amorim's side.
