Inside story of how Man Utd appointed Ruben Amorim after Erik ten Hag left ‘devastated’

The Telegraph  

United have made some consequential signings from Sporting over the years. Just 116 days after United exercised the option of a one-year contract extension for Ten Hag after a prolonged period of uncertainty, the Dutchman was dismissed for reasons that were often evident during most of last year and long periods of this one. Ten Hag left United with two trophies, one in each of his two full seasons, a third-place finish in the first of those and some themes that had haunted him consistently. United’s league form tells the story: 22 defeats from 61 games after their League Cup win in February 2022 and 82 goals conceded, equal to those scored. Their eighth place last season was the club’s worst finish of the Premier League era If Ten Hag was the wrong man now, why did United back him in June?
