Manchester United are all set to appoint Ruben Amorim as the club’s next manager.
The Red Devils parted ways with Erik ten Hag earlier today and the Sporting Lisbon manager is close to finalising his move to Old Trafford. According to Caught Offside, Manchester City were keen on appointing him as a replacement for Pep Guardiola in future but the Portuguese manager has now thanked them for their interest and turned down the opportunity.
Amorim is keen on taking over at Manchester United right now and the Red Devils will pay €10 million in order to release him from his contract. The manager will sign a two-year contract with the club with the option of a further year. He will earn €8 million per season at Old Trafford.
Sporting CP have already confirmed officially that Manchester United will trigger his release clause.

Can Amorim turn things around at Old Trafford?
Amorim has done quite well with the Portuguese club and it will be interesting to see if he can make his mark in the Premier League. He will be expected to make an instant impact and turn things around at Old Trafford.
Manchester United have a quality squad at their disposal but they have been quite mediocre with their performances. They are currently 14th in the league table with just three wins from nine league games.
A club of their stature will be expected to fight for Champions League qualification and they will look to do well in the domestic competitions as well. Amorim has shown his quality in Portugal and it remains to be seen whether he can bring out the best in Manchester United.
This will be an exceptional opportunity for the 39-year-old manager to showcase his abilities at the highest level. Manchester United are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the opportunity to manage them can be quite attractive for any manager. If he can help them reclaim their former glories, he could be a legend at Old Trafford.
The fact that he has turned down Manchester City will endear him to the Manchester United faithful further.
