With Manchester United dismissing head coach Huven Amorim (40) in a head-on collision with the leadership, the local government is already analyzing candidates for the next head coach. Manchester United, which hurriedly replaced manager Amorim during the season, is expected to immediately start appointing a formal head coach.

In an official statement on the 5th, Manchester United said, "Amorim has stepped down as manager," adding, "With the current sixth place in the Premier League, it is the right time to change." "This will be the best chance for the team to finish the season as the highest possible ranking," he said.

Coach Darren Fletcher will be the head coach of Manchester United, which has been vacant for now. Coach Fletcher will lead Manchester United from the upcoming Burnley match.

It was a sudden replacement. Sports media "The Athletic" analyzed that the replacement was more likely an unexpected decision than a detailed preliminary plan. The media pointed out, "The fact that there is no clear successor to director Amorim suggests that the dismissal was a reactionary decision based on his remarks rather than a deliberation in advance."

In fact, the interview was the decisive blow for Amorim's replacement shortly after the 1-1 draw with Leeds United on the 4th. According to the 'BBC' and others, Amorim said to the head of the club, "I want to work as a manager, not as a coach. "I'm ready to leave when the contract expires in 18 months," he said.

The most likely candidate for the next coach is Enso Maresca, who left Chelsea last week. According to The Athletic, even among gamblers, Maresca, who led Chelsea until recently, has emerged as the likely next head coach of Manchester United.

Crystal Palace coach Oliver Glasner and FC Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez were also nominated. On top of that, Thomas Tuchel, England's national team coach, Gareth Southgate, former England coach Marco Silva Fulham and Cesc Fabregas Como are mentioned.

According to the 'BBC', Manchester United's leadership judged that there was no evidence of sufficient evolution or development this season under coach Amorim. Manager Amorim recorded 24 wins, 18 draws, and 21 losses in 63 games, with a winning rate of only 38.1%. In particular, it has been sluggish, with only three wins in the last 11 league games.

Internally, tactical disagreements and personnel conflicts were also serious. Since taking office, coach Amorim has insisted on his philosophy of the three-back system. Technicians, including chief scout Christopher Wiebel, have strongly called for the transition to a four-back system. According to a 'BBC' report, Biebel also criticized Amorim's tactics as overly predictable.

Amorim won against Newcastle United on Boxing Day with a brief four-back performance, but he returned to three-back, drawing complaints from the leadership. It is also known that he has been in serious conflict with director Jason Wilcox over the right to recruit players.

"Differences over transfer market strategies and tactical approaches have turned into a power struggle, and Amorim lost the fight, making the decision to be replaced this morning," said Fabrizio Romano, who is familiar with the news of European clubs.

Manchester United, which sent out the head coach during the season, is expected to begin the appointment of the next head coach immediately. "There is too long left to spend the rest of the season under Fletcher's temporary system," The Athletic said. "The team's leadership will move very quickly to appoint a formal successor."
