Manchester United in Talks to Appoint Ruben Amorim as New Head Coach
Manchester United have approached Sporting CP regarding head coach Ruben Amorim as a potential successor to Erik ten Hag, who was sacked earlier today.
Ongoing discussions suggest the club is willing to activate Amorim’s release clause, believed to be around £8.3 million.
Amorim, 39, has led Sporting to a perfect start in the Portuguese league this season, winning all nine matches while conceding just twice. Despite speculation about his future, he has refrained from commenting directly, expressing pride in his role at Sporting.
As one of Europe’s most sought-after young coaches, Amorim has been linked with various high-profile positions, including those at Liverpool and West Ham.
His successful tenure at Sporting, highlighted by two league titles, positions him as a strong candidate for the Old Trafford role.
While no deal has been finalized, sources indicate that Amorim is keen on the challenge of managing Manchester United, marking a significant step in his career.
