Coach Ruben Amorim immediately removed two Man Utd players from the plan

(Dan Tri) - According to British press, coach Ruben Amorim has removed two players Christian Eriksen and Joshua Zirkzee from his plans at Man Utd.

Coach Ruben Amorim has not started working at Man Utd until he has completed his work permit. However, from now on, the Portuguese strategist has built a plan to develop the Manchester team.

In addition to welcoming new players, coach Ruben Amorim will liquidate players who do not fit his philosophy. According to transfer news expert Fabrizio Romano, the first person to be eliminated from the 1985-born coach's plan is Christian Eriksen.

Work rate is the first criterion for coach Ruben Amorim to select players. Therefore, a player who has turned 32 like Eriksen no longer meets the requirements of the Portuguese strategist.

On Youtube channel, journalist Fabrizio Romano said: "I don't think Eriksen will continue to stay at Man Utd under coach Ruben Amorim this season. It will be difficult for him to meet the requirements of intensity in the Man Utd midfield."

Another player who could leave Man Utd in January is Joshua Zirkzee. According to the Mirror, manager Ruben Amorim believes the Dutch striker is "not good enough" to have a place in his squad.

Since the beginning of the season, Joshua Zirkzee has only scored 1 goal and had 2 assists for Man Utd. The 23-year-old striker has been clumsy in the penalty area and his ability to "sniff out" opportunities is not really appreciated.

For now, coach Ruben Amorim will use Rasmus Hojlund as a striker, before spending money to recruit his favorite student Viktor Gyokeres in January 2025. This season, the Swedish striker is playing very well, contributing 23 goals after 18 appearances.

As for Joshua Zirkzee, this player will be loaned out during the winter transfer window. Currently, Juventus is interested in the Dutch striker and wants to bring him back to Serie A.

Former Arsenal striker Ian Wright is not surprised that manager Ruben Amorim does not rate Joshua Zirkzee highly. He believes that the Dutch striker will find it difficult to become Man Utd's ace due to his limited ability.
