MU had a disastrous start to the season and Amorim’s future was uncertain. Insiders at Old Trafford even said that the Portuguese coach could “run away” before a decision was made to fire him.

MU officials want to focus on the match with Burnley in round 3 of the Premier League (9pm on August 30). After that, the FIFA break is the time to resolve the "hot seat".

Zidane has always been a dream for MU. The Old Trafford team hopes to convince the French football legend to accept the job of leading the club.
