Manchester United’s struggles this season have sparked growing speculation about Reuben Amorim’s future, with reports emerging that the club is already compiling a list of potential replacements. With United failing to hit the heights expected under the Portuguese tactician, names like Zinedine Zidane and Mauricio Pochettino are now being linked to the Old Trafford hot seat.
Despite arriving with high expectations, Amorim has faced challenges in implementing his vision at United. Inconsistency in results, tactical uncertainties, and growing frustration among fans have raised concerns about whether he is the right man to lead the club forward. The latest admission from Amorim—acknowledging that Everton boss David Moyes is doing a better job than him—has only fueled speculation that he could be on borrowed time.
According to sources close to the club, United’s hierarchy is already weighing up potential successors, with Zidane and Pochettino seen as frontrunners. Zidane, a three-time Champions League-winning coach with Real Madrid, has long been admired by the United board, while Pochettino, known for his attacking philosophy and Premier League experience, remains a strong candidate.
While Amorim still has time to turn things around, upcoming results will be crucial in determining his fate. A poor performance against Everton today could further increase the pressure, making his departure seem inevitable.
With United’s ambitions far greater than their current position, the question now is not just whether Amorim will stay—but how soon the club will make a decision on his future. Could this be the beginning of the end for him at Old Trafford? Only time will tell.
