Former Manchester United player Danny Higginbotham believes Ruben Amorim needs to lead the team to a top-six finish in the Premier League next season. He thinks that would be actual progress for the club before they take the next step.
Speaking to Football365, Higginbotham stated that the 2024/25 season was a write-off for United and Maorim as they focused on the UEFA Europa League. He said:
Manchester United finished 15th in the Premier League this season with 41 points from their 38 matches. They will not be playing in any European competitions next season, nor are they involved in the FIFA Club World Cup in the United States.
Danny Higginbotham said that the jury was still out on Ruben Amorim for him. He was also pleased that the club were targeting proven Premier League players in the ongoing transfer window.
Speaking to Football365, he added:
Manchester United have also been handed a massive boost with Bruno Fernandes reportedly set to stay. He was believed to be a target for Al Hilal, but the club captain has rejected their offer.

His exploits have led him to become a popular figure in European Football and interviewing Premier League legends such as Alan Shearer, Shay Given, Paul Dickov, and John Barnes. His articles have been much revered amongst the football fraternity and have been shared by the likes of John Terry, Gary Lineker, and Declan Rice.
