Ruben Amorim 'could QUIT' Man Utd as Sir Jim Ratcliffe fears revealed in shock report

Ruben Amorim was appointed back in November 2024.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe is reportedly worried that Ruben Amorim could quit Manchester United.

Back in October 2024, Erik ten Hag was sacked by United after a 2-1 defeat by West Ham United at the London Stadium.

In turn, the club acted quickly to appoint Amorim after his impressive spell in charge of Sporting Clube de Portugal.

The Portuguese has so far found it tough to install his playing style onto the squad as they sit 16th in the Premier League table.

However, the Red Devils have performed well in Europe and are one step away from clinching Champions League qualification.

Their whole season hinges on Wednesday night, when they take on Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League final.

Speaking recently, Amorim appeared to hint that he may have to leave the club after results do not improve.

He said: "It’s a decisive moment in the history of the club. We need to be really strong in the summer and to be brave because we will not have a next season like this.

“If we start like this, if the feeling is still here, we should give the space to different people.”

As a result of Amorim's recent admission, it has been claimed that United minority owner Ratcliffe is worried.

As reported by The Sun, the INEOS boss 'remains concerned' that Amorim may decide 'enough is enough after a campaign of chaos'.

It has been suggested that Ratcliffe sees the 40-year-old Portuguese as a similar character to himself, a kind of a 'loose cannon'.

The report also added: "He wants to know for sure that the manager will at least see out the remaining two years of his contract — instead of leaving United in an even deeper mess."

Speaking ahead of the Europa League final, Amorim said: "I am really confident. I feel that my players are ready for this game.

"They know what it means, not just for us but for our fans and for the club. After this season, we are ready to fight for the one thing that can help us remember this season in a different way. So I am really confident."
