RUBEN AMORIM ENDURED A VERY DIFFICULT FIRST SEASON AT MANCHESTER UNITED WITH ARSENAL ICON MARTIN KEOWN SUGGESTING A SURPRISE OPTION TO REPLACE THE PORTUGUESE COACH AT OLD TRAFFORD 09:59, 03


Jun 2025 Manchester United have sensationally been told to sack Ruben Amorim for Liverpool legend Jurgen Klopp. Amorim endured a woeful first season at Old Trafford since replacing Erik ten


Hag. He led the club to 15th in the Premier League - their worst finish of the modern era - while they also missed out on a spot in the Champions League after losing the Europa League final


against Tottenham. That rotten form has left Amorim clinging on to his job. And former Arsenal defender Martin Keown believes he has the perfect replacement already lined up: Klopp.


Explaining the controversial move on talkSPORT, Keown said: “I’m still concerned that maybe this isn’t the right manager for Manchester United. “Just look at the number of games they’ve


lost. It’s going to be a very interesting start to next season for them but they could do a lot worse than go and get Jurgen Klopp to manage their football club. “I’m not trying to


sensationalise. I believe he could do an incredible job there and I believe they need somebody with more experience than the current manager.” READ MORE: Al Hilal eye Man Utd revenge as new

done a rebuilding job before [at Liverpool].” Amorim still has two years left to run on his original deal, with the option of a further season. It now appears very unlikely that he will be


moved on. Article continues below While the prospect of him being sacked looks unlikely, the prospect of Klopp moving to Old Trafford looks closer to impossible. The German is currently


serving as Red Bull’s Head of Global Soccer and has hinted that he may never return to the dugout. Meanwhile, his ties to United’s bitter rivals Liverpool make a move even more unlikely.


That is despite Klopp having held talks over a switch to Old Trafford in the past. _SHOULD MAN UNITED KEEP RUBEN AMORIM? SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS IN THE COMMENTS BELOW_ He previously revealed he


turned down a move ahead of Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement. Klopp said: "We spoke. We spoke not a lot but, for me, it was a lot. It was a big honour, the whole talk, to be honest.


But I could not leave Dortmund. "You are in April and you are in the middle of the planning for next season. You have this player and this player who are coming but then you are not


there anymore? That doesn't work. Not in my life. Article continues below "I didn't hear about a real offer [from United] but, if there was, I could not have done it. I first


had to finish the job with Dortmund and then think about other things. Maybe that is not smart but that is my way. It was the same at Mainz." JOIN OUR NEW MAN UTD WHATSAPP COMMUNITY
