EPL: Amorim wins manager of month award for October

Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has won the Premier League manager of the month award for October, the first time he has won the accolade.

Amorim, who became United boss in November 2024, led his side to three top-flight wins last month as he eased the pressure on himself following a slow start to the season.

United started October with a win against Sunderland before they claimed three points at Liverpool – their first Anfield victory since January 2016 – and then went on to beat Brighton 4-2.

“The credit is not mine, the credit is for my players,” said Amorim, whose side were knocked out of the Carabao Cup by League Two Grimsby Town in August.

“They did really well, and our goal is to win the next one [award], because it means we win football matches and that is our goal.”

It is the first time the Old Trafford club’s manager has won the award since Erik ten Hag in November 2023.

Amorim’s side drew with Nottingham Forest in their last game on Saturday, 1 November and are eighth in the Premier League.

United forward Bryan Mbeumo won the player of the month award for October following three goals and an assist in his side’s three victories.
