Ruben Amorim is on the verge of leaving Sporting to become the next manager of Manchester United to replace Erik ten Hag.
Amorim, who has a €10 million release clause, had been one of the favorites to replace Jurgen Klopp as the Liverpool manager in the summer before they moved forward with Arne Slot.
Manchester City have also had interest in Amorim as a potential successor to Pep Guardiola. Amorim is considered an astute tactician and a clever man-manager. United are in 14th place in the Premier League.
