Two senior figures, one a player and the other a club legend, are reportedly expected to leave Manchester United after Ruben Amorim becomes the next permanent manager.

Amorim has agreed to become Man Utd’s next manager and the club has officially informed Sporting CP of its intention to activate his €10 million release clause. That last step is necessary given that Sporting CP is a publicly traded company.

Ruud van Nistelrooy has taken charge on an interim basis for the time being and will be on the bench for tonight’s EFL Cup clash against Leicester.

But according to a new update of the i newspaperThe Manchester United legend “expects to leave the club” rather than return to his previous role as assistant manager.

The report adds that Amorim “will almost certainly bring in his own staff from Sporting.” Among those expected to join Amorim at Old Trafford are assistants Carlos Fernandes and Adelio Candido, who have so far followed Amorim at three different clubs.

That news comes after talkSPORT reporting on a consequence of Amorim’s imminent arrival is Big-money winger Antony is included in the transfer list.

It is claimed that Antony, who cost an initial £82m to sign, has already been told he can leave in January and that Amorim does not plan to use the winger in any way.

Van Nistelrooy said he has made Manchester United worse

Just before Ten Hag’s departure, former Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan viciously lashed out at Van Nistelrooy, telling United co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe to “find a suitable manager”.

“If they recruited Van Nistelrooy with that in mind (to make him interim), then fair play to them,” Jordan said. talkSPORT.

“He is part of a coaching team that has created problems since he walked in the door.

“So, from my point of view, if you approach Van Nistelrooy to give him a chance, then you have no idea how everything should go in the first place. You must have clear visions.

“They have brought in Van Nistelrooy and there is no added value; in fact, United are worse off as a result.

“He is part of a training framework that ten witches sits on top, of which he is a part.

“There is nothing about Van Nistelrooy that I would suggest gives any indication that he should get the job, other than the fact that there is a history of Van Nistelrooy and Manchester United.

“Make a decision and find a suitable manager.”

Since then, Man Utd have shown clear direction and purpose by moving quickly for Amorim. However, when he will be available to take the reins is a hot topic in the media…
