Rúben Amorim Open to Manchester United Role: Initial Approval Given for Club Negotiations
The managerial search at Manchester United could be nearing a resolution as Rúben Amorim, the highly regarded Sporting CP head coach, has given an initial green light to join the club. Amorim, who has established a reputation for his tactical acumen and development of young talent, has verbally agreed to the project at Old Trafford and is reportedly satisfied with the terms discussed thus far.
Amorim’s commitment to Sporting is evident, and he respects the club’s position. However, a clear path for his potential departure has emerged through a mutual understanding with Sporting’s management. According to sources, Amorim’s contract includes a unique release clause structure: while the standard exit clause sits at €20 million, a pact with the club reduces this figure to €10 million for top European teams, effectively streamlining any negotiations with a club of United’s stature.
Manchester United, recognizing Amorim’s potential to reshape the team, is ready to meet this compensation requirement, showcasing their commitment to bringing him on board. As of now, club-to-club discussions are ongoing, with both sides seemingly focused on finalizing an arrangement that respects Amorim’s achievements with Sporting.
