Manchester United’s new manager, Ruben Amorim, has expressed his determination to lead the club back to Premier League glory.

Amorim, who took the reins from Erik ten Hag during the November international break, knows the weight of expectation that comes with managing the iconic club.

Despite a recent setback in the Carabao Cup, he remains focused on bigger ambitions.

On Thursday night, United faced a tough 4-3 defeat at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur, ending their Carabao Cup journey.

The match was a rollercoaster, with both teams fighting hard, but ultimately, it was Spurs who edged out the Red Devils.

This loss was disappointing for United fans, especially given the club’s history of success in domestic cup competitions.

However, Amorim isn’t dwelling on the defeat. For him, the real goal is clear: reclaiming the Premier League title.

Speaking after the game, the 39-year-old Portuguese coach emphasized the need for long-term progress rather than quick fixes.

“We can’t think winning silverware will fix everything. We are improving as a team,” he explained.

“Our goal is to win the Premier League. How long it will take, I don’t know.”

Amorim, who previously managed Sporting Lisbon and earned praise for his tactical skills and leadership, faces a tough challenge ahead. United’s current league position, 13th, is far from ideal.

They are six points away from the coveted fourth spot and a significant 14 points behind their fierce rivals and current league leaders, Liverpool.

Super Eagles forward Victor Osimhen has opened up about the growing interest from top clubs looking to sign him this summer. Speaking during a chat with Daddy Freeze, the 26-year-old said he’s taking some time off to rest before making any decisions about his future.

Osimhen had an outstanding season on loan at Galatasaray, where he netted 37 goals in all competitions, claimed the Turkish Super Lig Golden Boot, and even won Goal of the Season. Despite turning down a lucrative offer from Saudi side Al-Hilal, big European names like Chelsea, Liverpool, and Juventus are reportedly keeping tabs on him. Galatasaray are also eager to bring him back on a permanent deal.

“When the season ends and the transfer window opens, it’s normal for clubs to show interest,” Osimhen said. “For now, I’m just enjoying my holiday. I’ve been reflecting on last season — watching my goals, going over my mistakes, and appreciating the good moments.”

Paris Saint-Germain boss Luis Enrique has said that every team brings their best when facing his side. He made the comment after PSG’s surprising 1-0 loss to Botafogo in the Club World Cup on Thursday night, a result that ended their unbeaten streak dating back to May 3.

The only goal of the match came in the 36th minute, when Igor Jesus controlled a long ball and slipped it past Gianluigi Donnarumma. Although PSG dominated possession and racked up 16 shots, they struggled to convert chances. Botafogo had just four attempts, but each one was on target, while PSG only managed two on goal.

“Teams always find extra motivation against us,” Enrique said after the match. He admitted that PSG had difficulty breaking down Botafogo’s tight defense and praised the Brazilian side’s overall team effort. “They defend together, attack together. That kind of unity is what makes a team strong, and it’s why they’re so hard to beat,” he added.
