"He would just create havoc, but good havoc" - Roy Keane names dream manager to replace Amorim at Manchester United

Roy Keane suggests Diego Simeone as ideal successor to Ruben Amorim at Manchester United, citing Simeone's strong personality and proven record of major trophies.

  • On Thursday, Roy Keane named Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone as his preferred replacement for Ruben Amorim, repeating his support on The Overlap podcast.
  • Amorim has come under pressure after a poor run of results, winning just 20 of his 50 games despite a 2-0 home victory over Sunderland that eased immediate pressure.
  • Simeone's record shows success with 442 wins from 749 games and five major trophies, highlighted by Keane who cited Atletico Madrid's 5-2 win over Real Madrid.
  • Sir Jim Ratcliffe has publicly backed Ruben Amorim and warned against a knee-jerk dismissal, urging patience ahead of Manchester United's trip to Liverpool at Anfield on October 19.
  • Paul Scholes suggested Eddie Howe as another viable successor, but the United hierarchy will decide based on recruitment strategy and culture change considerations.
