The Manchester outfit confirmed on Monday morning that they have opted to dismiss Amorim after the team’s 1-1 draw away to Leeds United on Sunday, in which the Portuguese boss embarked on a stunning post-match rant that cast immediate doubt over his future.

Four potential managers have already been identified by United, according to The Independent, with Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner emerging as the standout choice. His success at Selhurst Park has raised plenty of eyebrows, with last season's FA Cup triumph helping him to emerge as one of the most coveted names on United's list.

Enzo Maresca is interested in replacing Ruben Amorim as the manager of Manchester United, sources have told TEAMtalk, with the Italian having departed Chelsea on New Year’s Day, but the club’s director of football, Jason Wilcox, is not putting all his eggs in one basket.

Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner has been identified as the top target to replace Ruben Amorim at Man Utd with four names on their list, according to reports. The Red Devils chose to sack Amorim on Monday with a statement released in the morning to confirm their decision after they drew 1-1 against Leeds on Sunday.
