Former Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini has sensationally claimed that he could be in line to replace Ruben Amorim if he is sacked by Manchester United, according to reports.
Amorim has been under pressure after a poor start to the season for the Red Devils, and admitted before their recent win over Sunderland that he was running out of time to save his job if results didn’t improve.
His comments followed a painful defeat at Brentford, although assurances from Ineos sources suggested that Ratcliffe still backed Amorim and was prepared to let him stay in charge for the rest of the season.
