Manchester United Sack Ruben Amorim, Appoints Darren Fletcher As Interim Manager
Manchester United have sacked head coach Ruben Amorim, the club confirmed in a dramatic decision on Monday, 5 January 2026, a club statement revealed.
The Portuguese coach, who only joined the Red Devils in November 2024, has been relieved of his duties amid growing dissatisfaction with the team’s performances and recent comments that exposed internal tensions at Old Trafford.
Amorim’s tenure saw the club sitting sixth in the Premier League table at the time of his dismissal, with reports confirming his departure came less than 24 hours after he publicly criticised the club’s hierarchy during a press conference following a 1–1 draw with Leeds United.
Sources say the club’s leadership acted swiftly after the controversial interview in which Amorim made pointed remarks about his role and authority, amplifying pressure on the Portuguese boss less than two seasons into his reign.
At this stage, Manchester United have named Darren Fletcher as the interim manager while preparations begin for identifying a permanent replacement.
