Dismissal of Amorim Costs Manchester United 20 Million Dollars

The dismissal of former Manchester United coach Ruben Amorim is expected to cost the club approximately $20 million.

The recent dismissal of Ruben Amorim, the former coach of Manchester United, is anticipated to impose financial burdens on the club amounting to around $20 million. Amorim's tenure lasted approximately 14 months and came to an end on January 5, following his public criticism of the club's management. This dismissal has also seen five of his assistants depart from Old Trafford alongside him.

A report submitted to the New York Stock Exchange recently revealed potential payments to Amorim and his team, coinciding with the club's announcement of a Β£32.6 million profit for the second quarter ending December 31, 2025. The financial implications of Amorim's departure have been categorized as "events after the reporting period," indicating their importance to Manchester United's financial landscape.

In the financial statement, Manchester United outlined that Β£6.3 million would be allocated for the write-off of related intangible assets, while provisions totaling Β£15.9 million represent the maximum potential settlement payments. This financial information not only highlights the significant costs associated with Amorim’s exit but also reflects Manchester United's broader economic performance and prospects going forward.
