Ruben Amorim has decided on one of the most exciting career moves in European football. The charismatic coach will take charge of Manchester United starting November 11th, replacing the recently dismissed Erik ten Hag. Initially, Amorim intended to finish the season with Sporting Lisbon, but the interest from the English club was irresistible—especially as they were willing to pay his highly valued release clause.
Following his team's impressive 5-1 victory over Estrela da Amadora, Amorim stated that at the start of the season, he had already decided it would be his last with Sporting. The club's president was informed, but Manchester's irresistible offer changed everything.
"I only had three days to make a decision that will completely change my life," said Amorim. For the Portuguese, it was not an easy choice, but the opportunity to work at such a prestigious club as Manchester United was too tempting. Despite the uncertainty his announcement has created among Sporting's players, Amorim promises to give his all until the last match.
Fans will still have the chance to see him in two significant matches: in the Champions League against Manchester City and in the league against Braga. He remains true to his style and assures that he will not bring any Sporting players to United in the upcoming transfer window. The farewell is likely to be emotional, but Amorim looks forward to the new challenges in England, without forgetting his past successes and the support he received at Sporting.
