Ruben Amorim has outlined his expectations for his Manchester United players as he prepares for his first match in charge.
Speaking at his first press conference ahead of Sunday’s Premier League clash at Ipswich Town, the 39-year-old made it clear that he expects hard work and professionalism from his squad, emphasizing that these values are non-negotiable at a club like Manchester United.
In an interview with former United defender Gary Neville, Amorim stressed the importance of teamwork, stating that players must be willing to adapt to different positions and always prioritize the collective over individual interests.
He acknowledged his understanding of players’ motivations, explaining that he would support them as long as they put the team first.
However, he made it clear that if a player fails to do so, he will address the issue directly, stating that he would rather lose his job than throw a player under the bus.
Amorim previously led Sporting CP to their first league title in nearly 20 years, and he is tasked with guiding United back to their former glory.
Despite United’s current struggles in 13th place, they remain just four points off a Champions League spot.
Amorim’s challenge is to restore the team’s identity and build a solid foundation for future success.
Amorim’s approach indicates a strong, team-first mentality as he begins his managerial journey at Old Trafford.
