Amorim Says He’s Not Worried About Losing His Job Despite Man U Struggles
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has stated that he is not concerned about the possibility of losing his job despite his team’s disappointing form.
Amorim spoke after United suffered their 12th league defeat of the season, a 1-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur, which left the club in 15th place—just two spots above the relegation zone.
James Maddison’s first-half goal was enough to secure the win for Spurs in a closely contested match. Since taking over from Erik ten Hag, Amorim has now lost eight of his 14 league matches.
“I’m not worried about my job. I understand the fans’ feelings and what the media are saying,” Amorim told BBC. “I hate losing, it’s the worst feeling.
But I’m not focused on that. I’m here to support my players, and I’m confident in my work. My main focus is on improving our position in the table and winning matches.”
Popular Nigerian Footballer Victor Osimhen recalls his life journey and how he grew up in Lagos State, Nigeria.
During a recent interview with Daddy Freeze, the footballer reflected on his life, a young boy supporting his family.
The footballer recalled when he used to fetch water for the neighbors to make little money to support his family. He stated that he charged 80 naira per trip and he also washed the gutters, charging 30 naira.
Super Eagles head coach, Eric Chelle, is expected to be at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena in Lagos on Saturday, June 28, to watch the President Federation Cup final between Kwara United and Abakaliki FC.
The match presents a scouting opportunity for Chelle as he continues his search for fresh talent ahead of the 2024 African Nations Championship (CHAN), which is exclusive to players active in their home leagues.
Last month, the Malian coach included 10 home-based players in Nigeria’s squad for the Unity Cup in London, showing his growing interest in the local scene. Nigeria has been drawn into Group D alongside Congo, Sudan, and Equatorial Guinea for the upcoming CHAN, which will take place in August across Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania.
Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe has been hospitalized due to a severe bout of gastroenteritis. The club confirmed the news in a statement released on Thursday, noting that the French captain was taken in for medical tests after his condition worsened.
Because of this, Mbappe will be unavailable for Real Madrid’s upcoming FIFA Club World Cup clash against Pachuca on Sunday. He also missed their 1-1 draw with Al Hilal earlier in the week. At 26, the former PSG star will be aiming to bounce back quickly as he looks to return to action at the ongoing FIFA World Cup in the U.S.
