Sporting confirm Man United interest in Amorim

Manchester United are interested in appointing Sporting boss Ruben Amorim as their new manager and are willing to pay his 10m euros (£8.3m) release clause, the Portuguese club say.

The Red Devils need a new manager after sacking Erik ten Hag on Monday.

“Manchester United have expressed their interest in recruiting coach Ruben Amorim and have said they are ready to pay the 10 million euro release clause,” Sporting in a statement to the Lisbon stock exchange on Tuesday.

Amorim, 39, is a highly regarded coach who has won two Portuguese league titles with Sporting – including their first in 19 years – since joining in 2020.

United have declined to comment on the reports.
