Manchester United of the English Professional Football Premier League (EPL) appointed Ruben Amorim (Portugal) as coach.
Manchester United said on the 1st (Korean time), “We are pleased to announce the appointment of Manager Amorim. He signed a contract that runs until June 2027 and includes a one-year extension option.”
According to the club’s announcement, Coach Amorim will take charge of Manchester United and lead the team starting on the 11th.
Manchester United introduced his performance by saying, “Coach Amorim is one of the most promising coaches in European soccer,” and “He has won the Portuguese Primeira Liga league twice with Sporting.”
He also added that the acting manager Ruud van Nistelrooy will continue until manager Amorim joins.
The partnership between Manchester United and coach Amorim seemed like a foregone conclusion.
Previously, the American media ‘ESPN’ revealed the specific conditions, saying, “Manchester United has activated a 10 million euro (approximately 15 billion won) buyout for coach Amorim, and will also pay compensation so that the coaching staff can accompany him.”
Coach Amorim will join Manchester United after the away trip to Braga in the 11th round of the Portuguese Primeira Liga on the 11th.
Manchester United plans to enter the system of coach Amorim after the 2024-2025 season EPL round 11 home game against Leicester City on the 10th.
