Manchester: Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has reaffirmed that he has no plans to leave the club, despite claims that the Portuguese might be leaving following the club's poor performance.
West Ham humiliated Amorim and his team by winning 2-0 at United's historic home, Old Trafford. Following the defeat, Manchester United dropped to 16th place, with 17 defeats in the current Premier League season.
Despite their domestic troubles, Manchester United have managed to remain alive in the UEFA Europa League. Amorim's men advanced to the final based on consistency, and they will have a chance for retribution if they win against domestic rivals Tottenham.
During a news conference before the final on May 21, Amroim was questioned about his intentions to resign, to which he said, according to Sky Sports: "I am far from quitting. " What I'm implying is that since I came here, I've constantly discussed standards. I cannot envision the squad getting these results, especially in the Premier League, and not speak out and accept responsibility.
Amorim stated that he agreed to pay for his backroom staff for the final week after reports indicated that the club would not cover the cost of their tickets. According to reports, Manchester United's choice is due to cost-cutting measures started by minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe.
We have had many individuals depart, causing significant changes in our workforce. It is often tough in our club to know when to take and give, as well as respect those who have lost their jobs for us to survive and rebuild, he said.
It is difficult for the club to donate to other employees, making this a very difficult situation. That scenario was described, and my initial instinct was to assist since I am not a nice guy, and it will not change my life. The players agreed. Everyone wants the crew and families there, he said.
