Manchester United Target Ruben Amorim as New Manager Following Ten Hag’s Departure
According to reports, Manchester United has set their sights on Ruben Amorim of Sporting CP as their permanent replacement after Erik ten Hag was fired on Monday. Following a 2-1 loss to West Ham, which left United in a dismal 14th place in the Premier League, Ten Hag was fired.
Amorim is a well-liked young manager who is allegedly “open” to moving to Old Trafford, which makes him a desirable choice for United. Although Ten Hag’s assistant, Ruud van Nistelrooy, will serve as temporary manager, the team is eager to appoint a permanent manager in order to salvage their season.
Competition for the Signature of Amorim
Liverpool, who eventually recruited Arne Slot, had previously explored Amorim as a contender. With the recent signing of former Sporting CP director Hugo Viana, Manchester City is reportedly considering Amorim as a possible replacement to Pep Guardiola.
In the hopes that a new manager can turn around the team’s season and rebuild trust at Old Trafford, United supporters anxiously await the team’s next move.
