Ruben Amorim, who led Sporting, will take over at Manchester United.
Fabrizio Romano, a reporter familiar with the news of the European soccer transfer market, said on the 30th (Korea Standard Time), “Manchester United will pay 10 million euros (about 14.9 billion won) as a transfer fee to recruit Ruben Amorim as the new head coach.”
Under Erik ten Hag, Manchester United finished the season eighth by recording 18 wins, six draws and 14 losses in the Premier League last season. The team was eliminated in the group league at the UEFA Champions League. It was comforting to win the trophy at the FA Cup in England.
Despite the victory, rumors continued to emerge that Ten Hag will be replaced. Ahead of this season, specific names including Thomas Tuchel, Thomas Frank, and Gareth Southgate were mentioned as the next head coach.
Manchester United suddenly decided to accompany Coach Ten Hag. He meant that he would give him more time than replacement. There was no twist. In the Community Shield, the first game of this season, he met Manchester City and lost after a penalty shootout, missing the trophy. The situation is even worse in the league. He had three wins, two draws and four losses in nine matches. He ranks 14th in the league.
Rumors of his replacement have emerged, but Ten Hag was relaxed. “The disturbance is just a result of some of you (the media) making up stories and fairy tales and lying,” Ten Hag said of the rumor ahead of the match against Brentford. “Journalists don’t believe me. But they are quiet inside.”
He continued, “Of course, I’m not happy with where I am. Rankings don’t lie. Not enough. But we are quiet and calm. I’m sure I’ll stick to my plan and succeed.” 메이저사이트
However, it was reported that Manchester United’s next coach candidate had a secret meeting. According to the Daily Mail, four representatives, including Manchester United CEO Omar Verrada, flew to Barcelona to talk with Xavi.
“Sporting’s coach Amorim and Dortmund’s coach Edin Terzic are on the list of candidates for the next coach,” the media said. Brentford manager Thomas Frank is also considered a strong candidate once again.
In the end, Ten Haq was replaced. On the 28th, Manchester United said on its official website, “Ten Haq will step down,” and added, “Chief coach Rut van Nistelrooy will be the interim coach. An official coach will be hired soon.”
The next coach to lead Manchester United is Amorim. He is evaluated as one of the most promising leaders in Europe. Despite being relatively young at age 39, he won a trophy in Portugal’s Primera Liga and other leagues. Park Joo-ho, former member of the committee for strengthening power, recommended him as a candidate for the national soccer team.
According to Romano, Manchester United are expected to pay 10 million euros for a transfer fee to buy Amorim. Sporting have already announced that they have received an official call from Manchester United about the appointment of Amorim. Amorim has already reportedly accepted the offer. An official announcement is expected soon.
