Ruben Amorim prioritizes Europa League, risks player rotation for Manchester United

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim is prioritizing Europa League success over improving the club's poor Premier League standing, acknowledging the need to rotate his squad and rest key players to avoid injury ahead of crucial European fixtures. United's 3-0 win over Athletic Bilbao has put them in a strong position to reach the Europa League final, which would secure Champions League qualification and significant financial rewards. Despite being 14th in the Premier League, Amorim recognizes the financial and reputational importance of performing well in all matches, but stresses that player welfare and continental ambitions take precedence in the current context. Amorim has included several youth players in first-team training to cope with squad limitations. He maintains that United must remain competitive in every game, emphasizing both responsibility to results and the club's pride. However, he is clear that the focus is now on saving players for the Europa League while still respecting domestic commitments.
