The 40-year-old demanded to be seen as the manager at Old Trafford, rather than head coach, even at though the latter is his official title he called on since being appointed by Ineos in November 2024.

Amorim hinted at issues behind the scenes in his press conference on Friday and escalated his attack on the structure in place after United had actually played well to earn a point in a 1-1 draw at Leeds United.

He was asked why he had seemed so downbeat on Friday and responded with demands for more power, suggesting he was promised that when recruited from Sporting.
