Photographs of Jonny Evans and Rúben Amorim during Manchester United's recent training session have captured attention, marking a reunion 12 years after they faced off as players. In 2012, Evans, playing for Manchester United, went up against Amorim, then representing Braga, in a UEFA Champions League clash. Now, Amorim has returned to the footballing scene as United's head coach, guiding Evans and the team during his first session at Carrington.
Rúben Amorim's Appointment as Manchester United Manager
Rúben Amorim officially became Manchester United's manager after the club parted ways with Erik ten Hag earlier this month. The Portuguese coach, formerly of Sporting CP, has emphasized establishing a clear playing identity for the team. Amorim's backroom staff, comprising familiar faces from his Sporting tenure, joined him to facilitate this vision. He was introduced to the squad last week, including players like Luke Shaw and Mason Mount, who were in rehabilitation during the international break.

Amorim's tenure begins competitively on Sunday, November 24, 2024, with an away game against Kieran McKenna's Ipswich Town in the Premier League. This encounter is pivotal as Amorim seeks to make an immediate impact, with the squad aiming to climb the league table after a challenging start to the season.
