LONDON - It was the worst-kept secret, but Ruben Amorim was on November 1 finally named as the new manager of Manchester United on an official basis, replacing the sacked Erik ten Hag.
The 39-year-old Portuguese coach, who won two Primeira Liga titles with Sporting Lisbon, has signed a deal until 2027 and will join the club on November 11.
"Manchester United is delighted to announce the appointment of Ruben Amorim as head coach of the men's first team, subject to work visa requirements," the club said on their website.
"He will join until June 2027 with a club option of an additional year, once he has fulfilled his obligations to his current club."
United described Amorim as "one of the most exciting and highly rated young coaches in European football".
"Highly decorated as both a player and coach, his titles include winning the Primeira Liga twice in Portugal with Sporting CP - the first of which was the club's first title in 19 years," the club statement added.
