******* target Sporting’s Amorim to replace Ten Hag

Ruben Amorim is reported to be Manchester *******’s choice to be their new manager and they have moved quickly to make an appointment after sacking Erik ten Hag earlier on Monday.

Ten Hag was dismissed after ******* suffered their fourth Premier League defeat of the season on Sunday at West Ham, dropping to 14th in the table. They have won only one of their last eight games in all competitions.

Reports on Monday evening suggested the Old Trafford club were moving quickly to replace Ten Hag and were willing to pay a release clause to secure 39-year-old Amorim, whose Sporting Lisbon side top the Portuguese table.

Amorim has won two Portuguese titles and two League Cups with Sporting since joining the club in March 2020.

In recent weeks he has been suggested as a future Manchester City manager with Sporting’s Hugo Viana, a close friend, due to move to the blue half of Manchester as the club’s new director of football next season.

Ten Hag was sacked in the wake of a controversial 2-1 defeat at West Ham. His assistant, Ruud van Nistelrooy, has taken charge on a temporary basis.
