Manchester United have announced the sacking of Erik ten Hag as manager and are looking for a new manager, with Sporting Lisbon boss Ruben Amorim the favourite. Manchester United in the English Premier League released a statement via the club's website officially confirming that Erik ten Hag has been relieved from his position as first-team manager. The statement was released 1 day after the team lost 1-2 to West Ham United last Sunday. The statement said, "Thank you for everything you have done throughout your time at the club and I wish you all the best in the future." As of now, Ten Hag has led the team to play 9 league games, lost 4, won 3, drew 2, and dropped to 14th place in the English Premier League table with only 11 points. He has led the team to play 14 games in all competitions, winning only 4, drawing 6, and losing 4. Ten Hag has been with United for two seasons, winning the League Cup in his first year and the FA Cup in his most recent.

The Red Devils have games waiting for them, including the League Cup fourth round at home against Leicester City on Wednesday night, October 30, and the big Premier League match at home against Chelsea on Sunday, November 3. As for the progress in finding a new manager, the latest foreign media reported that the favorite is Ruben Amorim, the Portuguese manager of Sporting Lisbon, the leader of the Portuguese league, but must pay a release clause of 10 million euros, approximately 360 million baht, to get Amorim, aged 39, to be the new manager. Amorim answered the question about moving to manage the Red Devils in the latest press conference that he had expected to be asked this question and of course would not talk about the future. He felt very proud to be the head coach of Sporting. - Thai News Agency Source: Thai News Agency
