Ruben Amorim’s Manchester United future is hanging in the balance after the club’s shock Carabao Cup defeat to Grimsby Town — www.isagoal.com reports.
According to Mirror Online, the Portuguese coach will sit down with United chiefs after Saturday’s clash with Burnley, a game now viewed as crucial to his survival.
Amorim admitted, “We will have time to decide things,” hinting that his fate could be sealed during the upcoming international break.
United’s early-season struggles have left them with just one point from two league matches, placing them 16th after last year’s disappointing 15th-place finish.
Since arriving last November to replace Erik ten Hag, Amorim has managed only seven wins in 29 Premier League games.
Club executives, led by Omar Berrada, are reluctant to sack him so soon but recognize that results must improve immediately.
The defeat to League Two opposition has also sparked urgency in the transfer market, with a new goalkeeper and midfielder on United’s radar before deadline day.
Meanwhile, departures are expected as Jadon Sancho, Antony, Tyrell Malacia, and Alejandro Garnacho all remain outside the first-team picture.
Chelsea are pushing for Garnacho in a £35m-plus deal, while Real Betis are close to finalizing Antony’s permanent move.
