Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has been linked with a move away from the club in recent weeks.

Manchester United have started the season poorly, and the Portuguese manager is under a lot of pressure. He was heavily backed during the summer window and Manchester United signed quality players. However, they have not been able to produce the results on the pitch.

The club hierarchy will be concerned about the situation and it is no surprise that they are looking at potential alternatives. According to Fichajes, Aston Villa manager Unai Emery is on their radar. The Spanish manager has done an excellent job at Aston Villa, despite their struggles so far this season. He guided them to European football and they have been a competitive outfit in the Premier League. He has shown his quality at multiple clubs across multiple leagues. There is no doubt that he could be an interesting acquisition for Manchester United.

Man United move could tempt Emery

The opportunity to manage one of the biggest clubs in the country will be quite exciting for him as well. It would be an excellent platform for him to demonstrate his qualities at a higher level. Manchester United have the resources to sign the best players in the world and he will put together a formidable squad capable of winning league titles.

It will be interesting to see if Amorim is shown the door in the coming weeks. The results will need to improve drastically in order for the Portuguese manager to hold onto his job. As things stand, it is highly unlikely that he will be in charge of Manchester United for a long time.

Manchester United has been linked with other managers as well, but the Aston Villa boss is currently one of the front-runners to land the job.

The West Midlands club will not want to lose him any time soon. However, if Manchester United come calling, the Spanish manager is likely to be tempted. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.
