Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim will address fans on the pitch after the last Premier League game of the season against Aston Villa at Old Trafford. This announcement follows a difficult season marked by poor results and growing dissatisfaction among supporters. Aston Villa still has a chance to qualify for the Champions League and will visit Old Trafford for the final match.
Manchester United’s hopes for Champions League football ended after losing to Tottenham in the Europa League final. This defeat capped a season of struggles in the league and increasing criticism from both fans and analysts. For only the second time since 1990, Manchester United will miss out on all European competitions next season, reflecting one of the club’s toughest periods in decades.
Despite rising tensions around the club, Amorim confirmed he will speak to fans directly after the last game. He believes skipping the traditional lap of appreciation this year would be a mistake and that the supporters deserve an honest message. Amorim plans to offer a sincere apology rather than explanations and aims to speak genuinely from the heart.
Before kickoff, supporters plan to march to Old Trafford to protest the club’s leadership and recent job cuts made by new investor Sir Jim Ratcliffe. The demonstrations mainly target the Glazer family ownership and internal decisions that have frustrated many fans. Still, club executives continue to back Amorim as the right leader to guide the team through rebuilding. The manager sees this moment as an important opportunity to communicate openly with supporters.
Moving forward, Manchester United faces a critical off-season to restore trust and rebuild the team. Fans will closely watch Amorim’s message and the club’s next steps to recover from one of the most challenging seasons in recent history.
