Manchester United manager, Ruben Amorim, has sent a strong message to key officials at the club following another disappointing result.
The Red Devils were held to a 1-1 draw by Leeds United at Elland Road on Sunday, with Matheus Cunha cancelling out Brenden Aaronson’s opener.
Speaking after the game, Amorim made it clear that his role goes beyond coaching on the pitch, stressing that others within the club must also take responsibility.
“I came here to be the manager of Manchester United, not to be the head coach,” Amorim said.
He insisted that he is fully aware of the magnitude of the job despite comparisons to other high-profile managers.
“I know my name is not Conte, Tuchel or Mourinho, but I’m the manager of Manchester United,” he stated.
The Portuguese coach also ruled out stepping down, noting that his tenure would continue unless the club’s hierarchy decides otherwise.
“It’s going to be like this for 18 months or until the board decide to change. I’m not going to quit,” Amorim added.
