MANCHESTER UNITED HEAD COACH RUBEN AMORIM LEADS THE CLUB IN THE EUROPA LEAGUE FINAL AGAINST TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT 20:10, 21 May 2025 Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim

has insisted that he has no desire to leave Old Trafford by his own accord despite suggesting he could step down. Following the 2-0 defeat to West Ham at Old Trafford earlier this month, a

downbeat Amorim insisted that he should resign as manager if he cannot change the culture of the club. This led to some fears that he may choose to step down in the summer or early next

season if results do not improve. However, ahead of the Europa League final against Tottenham Hotspur, Amorim told CBS Sports that it is his desire to stay at Old Trafford for many years to

come. "That is clear, of course I am always open to any decision of the board, especially when I feel that I don't deliver what's supposed to be but I am 100 per cent,"

he explained. "This is my dream club, I waited for so long to change my club because I just want this club and I am here to stay if the board want." Currently, Amorim has the firm

backing of United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe. The Ineos founder hailed the Portuguese head coach back in March. When asked about Amorim, Ratcliffe told the BBC: "If I actually look at

the squad which is available to Ruben, I think he is doing a really good job to be honest. "I think Ruben is an outstanding young manager. I really do. "He's an excellent

manager and I think he will be there for a long time. You are beginning to see a glimpse of what Ruben can produce. "I think you saw a glimpse of it against Arsenal. How many players

against Arsenal on the bench did you recognise? "How many have ever worn a Manchester United shirt for [the first team]… as there's no squad left. We are down to the last 10 or 11

men in the squad really, of proper first-team players. Ruben is doing a super job." _Here at The Manchester Evening News, we are dedicated to bringing you the best Manchester United
