Amorim casts doubt on long-term future at club

Outburst came after Cunha earned draw at Leeds

Ruben Amorim has insisted he is Manchester United’s manager, not just the coach, and said that he may “move on” after the remaining 18 months of his contract at Old Trafford amid an apparent power struggle over transfer policy at the club.

In an impassioned press conference after Sunday’s 1-1 draw against Leeds at Elland Road, the Portuguese also pointedly told the scouting department and sporting director “to do their job”.

“I noticed that you receive selective information about everything,” he said after Matheus Cunha’s goal cancelled out Brenden Aaronson’s opener for Leeds. “I came here to be the manager of Manchester United – not to be the coach of Manchester United. That is clear. I know my name is not [Thomas] Tuchel, [José] Mourinho or [Antonio] Conte but I’m the manager.
