Ruben Amorim has explained his decision to not keep Ruud van Nistelrooy as part of his coaching staff at Manchester United. Van Nistelrooy was initially brought in as part of Erik ten Hag ’s coaching team last the summer but following the Dutchman’s sacking he was asked to step in as interim manager.

Amorim could mix things up further by moving the Dutchman to the central centre-back position and Maguire to the left. Maguire has experience playing as the left-sided defender in a three for England and Hull City but he is more of a ball-carrying centre-back than a passer.

Ruben Amorim has suggested that Chido Obi-Martin is not close to making his first-team debut for Manchester United. Obi-Martin is regarded as one of the best young striker prospects in Europe and left Arsenal’s academy to join United last October.
