Manchester United remain fully behind head coach Ruben Amorim, with no moves made to line up potential replacements, sources have told GIVEMESPORT.
Despite fresh speculation yesterday suggesting the Red Devils were looking at alternative candidates, the club are said to be completely committed to their current boss and his long-term project at Old Trafford. Amorim continues to enjoy the full confidence of the board, who believe he is the right man to oversee this period of transition.

The rumours over Amorim's future in the Manchester United hot-seat stemmed from a story in the Mirror, which initially listed names as possible successors. However, the piece was later amended to clarify that those names were drawn from betting odds rather than inside information.
While betting markets can sometimes move in line with genuine developments, they are just as often shaped by speculation, rumours or even shifts in fan discussion. In this case, the odds reflected outside noise rather than any activity from within Old Trafford.
Since his appointment, Amorim has been tasked with blending Manchester United's established stars with emerging young players, while embedding a clear tactical identity. Those close to the Red Devils insist the hierarchy remain firmly aligned with his vision and are not exploring alternatives.
Managerial speculation is nothing new at Old Trafford, where every dip in form or moment of pressure can fuel stories about possible successors.
But this time, sources insist, the reality is far more straightforward: Amorim retains the board’s backing, and the club are not preparing for change.
For Manchester United fans, the message is clear. The Portuguese tactician's position is not under threat, and the focus now is firmly on results on the pitch rather than who might be next in the dugout.
