Rúben Amorim, the new head coach of Manchester United, has stated that the club cannot rely on its history and that his main goal is to create a new identity for the team. United, currently sitting in 13th place in the Premier League, will debut under Amorim’s leadership next Sunday against Ipswich. The Portuguese coach emphasized the importance of establishing a clear identity and game model for the team.
Amorim expressed excitement about the club’s plans to build a new stadium or redevelop Old Trafford and is honored to be chosen to lead this new era. After meetings with club executives and a tour of Old Trafford, he is settling into his new role and is eager to get to work with the full squad next week. Amorim stressed the need for immediate improvement but acknowledges that building a new identity will take time.
With a contract until June 2027, Amorim is committed to bringing success back to Manchester United, a club that has been in decline since their last Premier League title in 2013. His appointment follows the departure of previous head coach Erik ten Hag, and changes are expected in the backroom staff, including the departure of Ruud van Nistelrooy. Amorim’s arrival signifies a new chapter for Manchester United, with a focus on regaining their winning ways and establishing a strong, new identity for the club.
