It Was Now Or Never, Or Manchester Would Go For Another Option,says Amorim

By IANS News November 02, 2024 • 11:00 AM View: 214
New Delhi: Ruben Amorim has accepted the Manchester United managerial role with mixed emotions, following an intense few days of contemplation. The Portuguese coach, celebrated for revitalising Sporting CP and winning two league titles—including their first in nearly two decades—had originally hoped to finish his season in Lisbon before making the move to Old Trafford.

However, Manchester United, eager for an immediate replacement for the recently dismissed Erik ten Hag, issued an ultimatum: accept the job now or lose the opportunity. After careful consideration, Amorim ultimately chose to make the move.

Speaking after Sporting's emphatic 5-1 victory in the Primeira Liga, Amorim opened up about the whirlwind decision-making process that led him to Manchester. “The season started, we started very well, and then Manchester United came. They paid above the compensation clause, and the president defended the club’s interests,” he explained. “For three days, I said I wanted to stay until the end of the season, but then I was told it was not possible. It was now or never, or Manchester would go for another option. So, I had three days to make a decision that changes radically my life.”
