Manchester United fans were in for a surprise when Ruben Amorim, the newly appointed head coach, was applauded by Sporting CP supporters in his first game post-Manchester United move. Amorim, who will officially start his role at Old Trafford on November 11, still had three games to oversee with Sporting CP before the international break.
The first of these three games took place at the Estadio Jose Alvalade, where Sporting CP faced Estrela da Amadora in hopes of maintaining their perfect start to the Liga Portugal season. As Amorim took to the touchline, he was met with applause from all corners of the stadium, showcasing the fans’ support for the new head coach of Manchester United.
On Wednesday night, Amorim will lead Sporting CP in his final home game as they host Manchester City in the Champions League. His last game in charge of the club will be against his former team, Braga, on November 10. United reached an agreement with Sporting CP to expedite Amorim’s transition, allowing him to start his two-and-a-half-year deal with the Reds on November 11. His debut game in charge of Manchester United will be against Ipswich Town on November 24.
