Jose Mourinho has voiced his support for Ruben Amorim as the Manchester United manager faces mounting pressure following a poor run of results.
Amorim arrived with optimism in November but has seen his enthusiasm wane after United’s FA Cup exit to Fulham, adding to ongoing struggles on the pitch.
Mourinho, familiar with the challenges at Old Trafford, praised Amorim’s character and expressed hope that his fellow Portuguese coach can turn things around.
Off-field issues continue to plague United, with Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s cost-cutting measures causing unrest among fans, further complicating Amorim’s task.
Despite setbacks, Amorim remains determined to revive United, though he acknowledges that the club’s long-term ambitions may eventually be led by another manager.
The Europa League now stands as United’s only realistic shot at silverware and European qualification, making their clash with Real Sociedad a crucial moment.
Amorim has emphasized his confidence in the club’s long-term vision, stating that success is about more than short-term wins and requires patience from supporters.
While frustrated by recent results, Amorim remains adamant that he knows what is needed to spark a turnaround, accepting the consequences of United’s current form.
