However, Amorim remains confident in his abilities and has stated that he will continue to lead the team in the same way. This has sparked speculation about potential replacements for Amorim.

Former Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho is one of the names being considered. He led the team to a European cup victory in 2017 but was sacked in 2018. Mourinho is currently priced at 6/1 to return as the Red Devils' head coach.

Another potential candidate is former England manager Gareth Southgate, who has been out of management since leaving the English national team after the Euro 2024 final. Southgate has stated that he will not return to management in the next year, but his comments may not be set in stone.

Lastly, former Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri is now the favourite to become the next permanent Manchester United manager, priced at 4/1. Allegri was previously a top contender for the job in 2024 and may now be considered as he is currently out of work.
