The English Premier League club announced Amorim's appointment earlier in November, with the 39-year-old Portuguese arriving from Sporting Lisbon on Nov 11 on a contract until June 2027.
Amorim, who replaces sacked Dutchman Erik ten Hag at United, marked his final game as coach of Sporting with a 4-2 comeback victory at Braga on Nov 10. He departs the Portuguese champions with a perfect record of 11 wins from 11 games in the Primeira Liga this season.
"I feel ready for the new challenge," he said after the match.
"I'm not naive, I know it's going to be very different, very difficult. I'm at peace now, I can focus on my new job and I'm looking forward to starting tomorrow."
Considered one of Europe's brightest young managers, Amorim's first match is slated for Nov 24 at promoted Ipswich Town in the Premier League.
