Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has admitted that his position at the club is “in danger” as their poor run of form continues.

United suffered a 2-0 defeat to Wolves on Boxing Day, marking their third consecutive loss. Since Amorim replaced Erik ten Hag during the November international break, the team has endured a difficult period, losing five of their last seven games.

Despite the limited time he has had to work with the squad, Amorim recognizes the high stakes that come with managing a club of United’s stature.

“The manager of Manchester United can never, no matter what, be comfortable,” Amorim stated. “I know that if we don’t win, regardless of whether they pay the buyout [for me] or not, every manager is in danger. That is the job, and I understand that.”

Amorim also acknowledged the challenges of his brief tenure, saying, “You can argue that I have been here one month and I’ve had four training sessions, but we are not winning. That is the reality, and I’m quite comfortable with that.”

As the pressure mounts, Amorim faces the challenge of turning United’s fortunes around in the weeks to come.
