Manchester United face a hefty pay-out if they want to remove manager Ruben Amorim.

Less than a year into his tenure, Amorim is under pressure after a poor start to the season.

The Portuguese's job is being discussed inside the Old Trafford board room after defeat at Manchester City on Sunday.

Doubts over Amorim's man-management, experience and tactics are now being raised inside and outside the club.

The Daily Mail says should United choose to push out Amorim, it will cost the club over £12m in terms of compensation. In comparison, United paid just over £10.5m to bring in Amorim from Sporting CP last season.

Overall, United have paid a massive £85m to sacked managers since Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement in 2013.
