The relationship between manager Hu Beng Amorim (41) and the Manchester United leadership is unusual. Manager Amorim openly expressed his dissatisfaction, and the goal of the conflict is getting deeper.

Britain's "Sky Sports" reported on the 5th (Korea Standard Time) that "tensions are rising between the leaders of the club, including Manchester United coach Amorim and technical director Jason Wilcox."

The media recently shed light on the interview left by manager Amorim shortly after the 1-1 draw against Leeds United, explaining that the conflict between the two sides is spreading beyond simple differences of opinion.

The trigger for the conflict is the winter transfer market in January. Manager Amorim wanted to immediately recruit the power, but director Wilcox and Manchester United's leadership maintained their priority to recruit prospects and not overspend. When "support" was not implemented, coach Amorim exploded in public.

"I came here as a manager, not just a head coach," Amorim said at a press conference after the game with Leeds United. "My name is neither Conte nor Tuchel nor Mourinho. But I am the manager of Manchester United. I will do it this way for 18 months unless the club cuts me," he stressed.

The difference in opinions between the club and the tactics is also known to be large. Director Wilcox called for tactical flexibility, saying Amorim's 3-4-3 formation is struggling in the EPL. However, coach Amorim has not bent his philosophy. It is taking Bodjin's tactical intervention as an overpower.

The media said, "Coach Amorim left a strange remark that 'everyone will leave in 18 months,'" adding, "This can be seen as an intention to leave after filling the contract period without renewing the contract, which is expected to have a repercussion." In fact, this is an ultimatum to the leadership to "trust me and support me or dismiss me."

Manager Amorim has been on a thorny path since the beginning of Manchester United's appointment. A series of failed points-hunting failures, including the recent 1-1 match against Leeds, have put the brakes on the league's leap forward. Currently, Manchester United ranks sixth in the league with 31 points (8 wins, 7 draws, 5 losses).
