Sporting CP are in action on Tuesday night against Nacional in the Taca da Liga and ahead of the clash, fans of the Portuguese giants gave their manager Ruben Amorim a warm reception following the news that he will be joining Man United.
Fabrizio Romano reported on Tuesday that Man United are set to pay the €10m release clause to get the 39-year-old out of his Sporting contract after identifying the Portuguese coach as Erik ten Hag’s successor at Old Trafford.
According to CNN Portugal, Amorim is expected to stay in charge of Sporting CP for their game against Estrela Amadora on Friday; however, Portuguese sources state that the 39-year-old could be announced as the new Man United manager tonight, reports Jamie Jackson.
Not knowing how long more they will have with their coach, fans of Sporting gave Amorim a standing ovation as he came out onto the pitch for their clash with Nacional on Tuesday night, which should tell Man United fans all they need to know about the manager they are getting.
