Manchester United will pay a buyout to recruit Hoobeng Amorim (39).
Sporting CP officially announced on the club’s official channel on the 30th (Korea Standard Time), “Manchester United expressed interest in appointing Hoobeng Amorim. Manchester United said it would pay 10 million euros (about 15 billion won) in buyouts that existed in Amorim’s contract with us.”
On the 28th, Manchester United announced the replacement of Ten Hach on the club’s website, saying, “Ten Hach has stepped down as Manchester United’s men’s first-team coach.”
Manchester United said, “Ten Haach took over in April 2022 and won the Carabao Cup in 2023 and the FA Cup in 2024, winning two domestic trophies. We thank him for everything he has done with us and wish him all the best in the future.”
Manchester United coach Ruud van Nistelrooy will temporarily take over as manager. Van Nistelrooy will lead the team along with the existing coaching staff until an official manager is appointed. According to The Athletic, Erik ten Hag was dismissed on the morning of the 28th (local time), leaving the team to take responsibility for his recent poor performance.
Ten Hach was appointed to Manchester United in the summer of 2022 and had a successful first season. At that time, he succeeded in winning the League Cup by placing his team in third place in the Premier League. This was Manchester United’s first trophy in six years, and Manchester United trusted him and entrusted him with the management of the club. However, since then, the deterioration of the season’s performance has sparked controversy, and Manchester United has once again been considering changing its manager.
In his second year, 2023-2024, his performance dropped dramatically. He was eliminated early in the Champions League group stage after losing to Galatasaray and Copenhagen, and he also remained in eighth place in the Premier League. Although he suffered from poor performances several times, he managed to earn trust by winning the trophy by beating Manchester City in the FA Cup final. 토토사이트
Manchester United invested around £190 million (W334.5 billion) in support of Ten Hach by bringing in key players such as Joshua Girksey, Lenny Yoro, and Matheis the Licht. They performed poorly in the early stages of the 2024-2025 season, and remained in the bottom ranks at 14th place in the Premier League. Amid a lackluster performance throughout all tournaments, Manchester United eventually decided to break up with Ten Hach.
Under his dismissal, Manchester United will pay a penalty of about W28.7 billion, the largest amount in the club’s history.
Manchester United then approached young manager Amorim, which was officially confirmed by Amorim’s current team Sporting CP.
Sporting announced on the 30th, “Manchester United expressed interest in recruiting our current coach, Amorim, and Sporting’s board has delivered to Manchester United the terms of the manager’s contract, especially the terms of the termination and the amount of 10 million euros.”
“Manchester United expressed its intention to pay our club the amount specified in the above termination clause,” he said, adding that Manchester United expressed its intention to pay a buyout to recruit Amorim.
