Manchester United have sacked Ruben Amorim with immediate effect. He was informed of the Manchester United decision early today by executives Jason Wilcox and Omar Berrada. He oversaw United’s lowest Premier League finish – 15th, with 42 points – last season and lost the Europa League final. "I've actually been quite supportive in the last few weeks of Manchester United's performances against Bournemouth, Aston Villa and Newcastle, I thought they were very good. "It's clear he needs another wing-back who can play in those wide areas - a specialist if you like - and Manchester United do need a central midfield player of force, of power, of presence.
