After a juicy altercation with United director Jason Wilcox and a 1-1 draw with Leeds, Ruben Amorim drew a criticism rule in front of an open microphone, which was tailor-made to get sacked. And the news of the firing came a few days after New Year. For the Portuguese, a real downer, but with much of the £10 million payment to the head coach and his staff in compensation, he will not suffer any hardship financially for the rest of his life. Does this mean that other Premier League clubs steer clear of Amorim, who clearly haven’t cracked the codes in the world’s toughest league? Sol Campell believes the ex-United manager will return to the biggest stage – as coach of a London club.
Premier League legend Sol Campel wore both the Tottenham and Arsenal shirts, it is for Spurs that the former centre-back giant sees Amorim as “chosen”.

Thomas Frank still has confidence, but even for the “manager who has never been sacked”, it will be hard to keep his job as Spurs manager on the way down to last season’s horribly weak 17th place in the Premier League. Campell believes Amorim is already on the block as a potential replacement for the Dane.
-Ruben Amorim [would be the ideal manager for Tottenham]. They will look at him,” Campbell begins, according to the Manchester Evening News.
-They are probably talking to him now; That wouldn’t surprise me. I don’t think he wants to go back to Portugal. Tottenham will talk to him to see if there are any situations going on – there will be people talking behind the scenes,” Campell said.
