Kobbie Mainoo's sister, Ama, has responded to the news of Ruben Amorim's sacking from Manchester United on social media.

United sent the footballing world into meltdown on Monday morning, when they confirmed that Amorim would be leaving his role at the club after 14 months in charge.

The Portuguese manager lost 19 of his 47 Premier League matches in charge with just 15 wins.

A 'breakdown in relations behind the scenes', is the reason for his shock exit according to The Athletic.

Amorim faced heavy criticism from fans and the media for his treatment of certain players during his time at Old Trafford, with Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho and Rasmus Hojlund all being forced out of the club.

However, one player who hasn't been allowed to leave is Kobbie Mainoo, who has become a major talking point in recent months due to his lack of game time.

Mainoo has made just 11 Premier League appearances this season, all coming from the bench, despite looking like one of United's brightest sparks in recent years.

The treatment of the England international by Amorim caused Mainoo's half brother to wear a 'Free Mainoo' shirt at Old Trafford last month, and following Amorim's sacking, the 20-year-old's sister has responded.

Shortly after the announcement, Ama took to Instagram to share a meme of a smiling woman, suggesting her and the family's happiness in the decision to sack Amorim.

Mainoo himself is yet to respond to the manager's exit and is currently out injured according to Amorim's latest pre-match press conference.

Man Utd statement on Ruben Amorim

United's statement, in full, reads: "Ruben Amorim has departed his role as Head Coach of Manchester United.

"Ruben was appointed in November 2024 and led the team to a UEFA Europa League Final in Bilbao in May.

"With Manchester United sitting sixth in the Premier League, the club's leadership has reluctantly made the decision that it is the right time to make a change. This will give the team the best opportunity of the highest possible Premier League finish.

"The club would like to thank Ruben for his contribution to the club and wishes him well for the future.

"Darren Fletcher will take charge of the team against Burnley on Wednesday."
