Massimiliano Allegri has emerged as the favourite to become the next Manchester United manager with Ruben Amorim’s future in doubt after their dismal Europa League final loss to Tottenham Hotspur.
Amorim only joined United in November 2024, after the sacking of Erik ten Hag, but has led the Red Devils to an awful season as they currently sit 16th in the Premier League and will secure their lowest top-flight finish since the relegation campaign of 1973-74. They were seven points off a Champions League place when Amorim took over but they are now 27 points adrift of fifth place
