Reports say Manchester United could cut the compensation they owe Ruben Amorim if he takes up the head coach role at AC Milan. Sky Sports is cited as saying the Red Devils paid compensation after sacking Amorim a few months ago, with the initial figure reported at about £15.9 million. Both outlets also state that the amount could be reduced if Amorim becomes employed by another club, potentially lowering the payout by millions.
The coverage links the possible reduction to Amorim being among the favourites to become AC Milan’s next manager, after the Italian club has a vacancy. While the articles do not specify the exact mechanism or final figure of the reduced compensation, they agree on the overall point: Amorim’s new appointment could trigger clauses that reduce Manchester United’s payment.
As of now, AC Milan’s appointment is not confirmed in the reports, and the compensation outcome depends on the final terms of Amorim’s contract and any relevant clauses following his move.
