On October 29, according to the Manchester Evening News, Sporting CP’s head coach Rúben Amorim has agreed to take over as Manchester United’s manager, and both parties have reached a principle agreement.
Following the official announcement of Manchester United’s manager Erik ten Hag’s departure, current Sporting CP head coach Rúben Amorim has become a strong contender for the position.
According to Lukehurst, the Manchester Evening News team reporter, Amorim himself has agreed to take the helm at Manchester United, and both parties have reached a principle agreement. As such, Manchester United only needs to reach an agreement with Sporting CP regarding Amorim’s release clause.
However, Manchester United also faces competition from their city rivals, Manchester City. Given that Manchester City’s manager Pep Guardiola’s contract will expire at the end of this season, Amorim is also one of their potential targets. Moreover, Sporting CP’s sporting director Hugo Viana is set to join Manchester City at the end of the season, and considering his close relationship with Amorim, the likelihood of Amorim choosing to take over at Manchester City is also high.
However, the Manchester Evening News reports that Manchester United is working hard to persuade Amorim, hoping to convince him that Manchester City will likely go through a downturn after Guardiola’s departure.
