Why Ruben Amorim has not broken his Man Utd silence after three months out of management

Ruben Amorim’s radio silence since his Manchester United exit has now been explained after the former Sporting CP manager was axed from Old Trafford.

The former Manchester United manager is currently a free agent and has been out of management for three months after his 14-month reign at the Red Devils ended.

United were sixth in the Premier League table at the time that Ruben Amorim was dismissed from his role after his fractured relationship with Ineos at the club.

Amorim had been brought to England from Sporting CP after Ineos made the decision to sack Erik ten Hag as Man Utd manager during the 2024-25 campaign.
