Manchester United is delighted to announce the appointment of Ruben Amorim as Head Coach of the men’s first team, subject to work visa requirements.
He will join until June 2027 with a club option of an additional year, once he has fulfilled his obligations to his current club. He will join Manchester United on Monday 11 November.
Ruben is one of the most exciting and highly rated young coaches in European football. Highly decorated as both a player and coach, his titles include winning the Primeira Liga twice in Portugal with Sporting CP; the first of which was the club’s first title in 19 years.
Ruud van Nistelrooy will continue to take charge of the team until Ruben joins.

The BBC has released an interesting piece on Amorim, delving into his persona, tactics and what he may do at Utd. Sporting Lisbon fans and Portuguese journalists regard him as a generational managerial talent, which is high praise indeed.

I seem to remember Sky doing a piece on Ole when he took the United job, went to Norway interviewing all the journos and experts over there, all said he was destined to be a world class coach etc etc

Almorim and Sporting were in disagreement over the timing of his departure. Almorim preferred to leave at the end of the season, while Sporting, in urgent need of funds, insisted he move immediately or not at all. Forced out?

It was United that said now or never. Amorim also said he won’t be going for any Sporting players in January.

Gyökeres going to Arsenal, perhaps? Plot thickens!
