Amorim Not Sure He Will Still Be at Man U When the Club Returns to Glory
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has admitted he’s unsure if he’ll still be in charge when the club eventually returns to its former glory.
His remarks follow United’s FA Cup heartbreak, where they were knocked out by Fulham in a penalty shootout during the fifth round.
Despite their struggles in the Premier League, sitting in 14th place, the Red Devils are still seen as strong contenders for the Europa League title.
Amorim has been clear about his ambition to win the league with United, but he acknowledged that he might not be around when success finally comes.
“I don’t know if I’ll still be here, but the way we are thinking, we will return and we will win in the future,” he told Sky Sports. “But that’s the risk. We’re making changes, but when you don’t get results, sometimes people have to go, and we understand that.”
Super Eagles defender Calvin Bassey has opened up about a difficult period in his career, revealing that he almost stepped away from football.
Speaking during a recent interview, Bassey shared that he once made a personal promise to himself to quit pursuing football professionally if he failed to secure a spot at a professional club.
“I remember being 15 and going into my final year, and I told myself that if I didn’t get into a professional club, I would quit football. It was that simple,” he said.
“I would just stop pursuing it seriously and only play for fun. Thank God I eventually got a club, because I honestly don’t know where I would be otherwise.”
It has been reported that the Confederation of African Football (CAF) fined Egypt $5,000 following their clash with Zimbabwe for failing to manage post-match media obligations.
It was noted that after the match, the Egyptian players ignored the media. This action was said to be a violation of CAF’s media regulations, which led to the fine being imposed.
Head of the Super Eagles, Eric Chelle, shared that the big-name players on the team are not happy about being benched.
He recalled when he took out Samuel Chukwueze during the match against Tanzania.
“Yes, of course, we’ve in this team a lot of big names. They are competitors; they aren’t happy when they go to the bench,” Chelle said at his post-match interview.”
“My job is to make choices, and we’re playing a 4-4-2 diamond, and at this moment I feel we have to protect the wing.”
