Amorim Eyes Manchester United Comeback After Tough First Season

Manchester United manager Rúben Amorim admitted to recent struggles but stressed that “things can change fast” as he anticipates a new season. He has fresh goals and plans to make the team better.

WHAT HAPPENED?

After taking over Manchester United in November 2024, Amorim has experienced a tough first season at Old Trafford. He had high hopes after his successful time at Sporting CP, where he won league titles and European games. But his first months in England have been hard. United lost the Europa League final to Tottenham and have finished outside the Champions League spots in the Premier League. They are currently in sixth place, seven points behind fifth-place Chelsea and just two points above seventh-place Newcastle United. Fans and analysts have questioned the team’s inconsistent play and results.

AMORIM’S VISION AND RECENT PERFORMANCE

Amorim insists change is possible and is already planning for next season. He said, “When you start thinking about the future and squad, new season starts with new ambitions, and try to do better.” In his first year, United struggled for stability, with key players sidelined by injuries and many disappointing results in big games. However, Manchester United’s leadership remains loyal to their coach, expressing full support and confirming he will be in charge for the upcoming campaign.

LOOKING AHEAD TO NEXT SEASON

United are preparing to strengthen the team and challenge for major trophies. With the domestic season over, United’s next competitive match will be in August, starting the new Premier League campaign. Amorim is expected to make substantial changes, including new signings and tactic changes. The club’s immediate goal is to return to the Champions League, close the gap to the league’s top clubs, and compete for silverware again. Fans will be closely watching to see if Amorim can fulfill his promise of bringing fast improvement and renewed hope to Old Trafford.
