Man United’s owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe bows to Ruben Amorim’s pressure agrees to sell four big-name player after their comments against Amorim after Tottenham loss.

Manchester United’s turbulent season has taken another twist following their narrow 1-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League final. The aftermath of the loss has reportedly intensified internal rifts, with manager Ruben Amorim allegedly pushing Sir Jim Ratcliffe to approve the sale of four prominent players who have been openly critical of his leadership.
Among those at the center of the unrest is Alejandro Garnacho, whose discontent became evident after he was limited to just 20 minutes of action in the final. His brother also voiced their frustration on social media, accusing Amorim of unfair treatment. This has only fueled speculation that Garnacho could be on his way out of the club.
Bruno Fernandes, the team captain, further stoked tensions by admitting he may consider leaving the club if management decides it’s best. His comments have raised doubts about his commitment and reflect a broader sense of instability surrounding the team.
Amid the chaos, Amad Diallo emerged as a rare positive. Despite the disappointing result, he apologized to fans and acknowledged the squad’s shortcomings throughout the season. His gesture was a stark contrast to the discord coming from other corners of the dressing room.
Meanwhile, financial concerns continue to mount under Ratcliffe’s leadership. The club’s valuation has reportedly dropped by £2.67 billion since February 2024—a staggering 60% decline. Missing out on European football next season has compounded the financial pressure, with projections estimating a £100 million loss in revenue.
Amorim’s tactical style has not gone unchallenged either. Former United defender Gary Neville was critical of the team’s setup against Tottenham, labeling the performance as chaotic and embarrassing. His remarks underscore growing doubts about Amorim’s ability to get the best out of the squad.
Despite the tension, Amorim has been given a £100 million budget to rebuild the team, with new signings such as Matheus Cunha and Liam Delap reportedly on his radar. Club executives remain committed to supporting Amorim’s vision as he prepares for his first full pre-season.
The weeks ahead could define Manchester United’s direction, with key player departures, financial hurdles, and tactical reinventions all on the horizon. Whether this marks the start of a revival or deeper unrest remains to be seen.
